The vacuum type power brake booster (2005):


The vacuum type power brake booster (2005):

  • is a dual diaphragm, vacuum assisted power brake booster
  • reduces brake pedal force and travel distance.
  • is located on the LH side of the bulkhead in the engine compartment, between the brake pedal (2455) and the brake master cylinder (2140).
  • is divided into separate chambers by the diaphragms.
  • will not operate if vacuum is restricted or if any of the vacuum related power brake components fail.
  • is installed as an assembly.

If the power assist fails, the brake system will continue to operate with increased brake pedal effort.
