yes, the existing booster had a lot of fluid in it. probably a combination of water and brake fluid. the system didn't hold pressure. i put my bleeder on it and fluid was coming out from a few locations.
i pulled the old booster.
installed a new booster
regarding rebuilding vs replacing the MC. I do have a kit. Pelican sells one. looks to have just about all the internal guts minus the springs. the housing is rusted but i was planning on cleaning it up. wire wheel brush off the surface rust and hit it with some paint to make it look good. then thoroughly clean the internal surface. the housing doesn't appear to be damaged in any way besides rust. are the replacements designed differently that would warrant a replacement? the replacement pieces looks slightly different. maybe the difference is in the internal design that i got with the rebuild kit. all the new MCs i looked at online appear the same as mine. at least the housing looks the same unless they are just using stock images of a 928 MC.
