I keep popping the 30 amp fuse for the power brake system. I would replace the fuse and have brakes for a little while, and then the fuse would pop again. The brake light comes on and the brake pedal is so hard that stopping is almost impossible. A funny smell under the hood. But no fluid leaks. Levels are up.
HELPPPPPPPP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Sounds like the motor/pump is siezing up. You can go with a reman unit, a new one, (I think they are still available), or you can contact Hank Terry on this list, and buy the pump/motor assembly, and replace just that. That is what I did the last time. But the time before that, I bought a reman unit. Eventually, replacing the fuse won't help, because it will blow immediately. So, choose your option soon, so that you aren't with out your baby for a long time, or worse, for good because they let go in a panic situation. Good Luck.

Brian
