[Healeys] brake booster

[Tadeusz Malkiewicz]

Hello there,

 

For documentation, scroll down to the Brakes section in :

m

The original Girling literature is there.

 

 

The Brakes section of the green Volvo Service Manuals also includes a very
good section on how it works.

 

I have rebuild about 2-3, and it's a bit of a job.. The following parts are
available from various sources:

- rebuild kit

- little plastic valves on the T-piece

- air filter

- the big vacuum piston.

 

The rebuild kit is usually sufficient..

 

 

If you go for replacements, there are 2 available:

-          Lockheed

-          PBR

 

But keep in mind they have different characteristics of assisting the
braking power.
