Re: Brake booster (2 part Q)

its my understanding that a brake booster only works one way. when you push the pedal, the rod goes in pushing the diaphragm in causing pressure in the m/c & lines. I've never seen a booster that pulls the rod out and causes the needed pressure. I did see a setup where the m/c & booster were mounted under the dash but that had a bell crank and other linkage to make it work.
Some one correct me if I'm wrong on this.
