I use a clamp to make sure its sealed. then put about 20 pounds of air, check this with tire gage. Let set for a few hours and check to see if you have any pressure still in the system.

I would do the check right at the servo to eliminate hose leaks before condemning the servo. Those hoses tend to get stiff and don't seal well. There is a check valve in the line which could affect testing, just so you know. Speedy Jim http://www.nls.net/mp/volks/ |

I had some stalling (no idle) on my '71 bus. with a '78 front end.
it would idle when I plugged the vacuum line to the servo. How do you check for leaks in the servo? -- when you believe the only tool you have is a hammer. All problems look like nails. |
