Reply to "Brake booster won't hold vacuum, should I rebuild/replace it?"

I swapped the generic clear tubing pictured above with Tygon fuel line.  It looked promising and then it began it fail.  The tubing seemed to sweat brake fluid.  I like clear tubing in this application because it shows fluid along with air bubbles.  The air bubbles can be removed  by simply un-mounting the reservoirs and holding them up high until the air bubbles go away.

I am hoping that the version of Tygon tubing for brake systems noted below resolves the issue.  I will report back if this chemical resistant version of Tygon corrects the problem with brake fluid sweating.
