I recently went through this very same scenario with my '69 Patrol. I'm really pretty sure it's the slave in your situation also. For a couple of years mine would lose fluid. I would add the fluid and pump the pedal and be good to go for a while (always carried a bottle of brake fluid with me). Finally one time the vehicle had sat for a long time. When I added fluid and pumped the pedal I still couldn't get any pressure. I pulled the slave and rebuilt it and now its fine.
Good to know, This baby hasn't had to many miles on it in a while, I think all those little rubber parts may be having issues once they get fluid and movement to them again.
Got to get my grease gun going here quick. how many grease fittings does the 69 patrol have???? Ha Going to take a while. I have time as I wait for All my parts to ship in from Aust. Wish i would have known I was getting this thing in the 90's when I was there. USN 1987-1990. Could have saved big bucks for shipping.
