Power Brake Booster: Removal
- Remove the remote ground cable from the ground stud located on the left shock tower.
- Correctly isolate remote ground cable by installing the ground cable insulator on the strut tower ground stud as shown. See Fig 1. This will prevent accidental grounding of the remote ground cable.
- Disconnect the wiring harness connector and vacuum hose at speed control servo. Remove speed control servo mounting nuts. Leaving cable attached, move servo out off to the side.
- Remove the master cylinder from the booster. See MASTER CYLINDER .
- Remove the vacuum hoses from the check valve located on the power brake vacuum booster.
- Remove the electrical connector and mounting screw from the purge solenoid mounted on the left frame rail. See Fig 2. Allow the solenoid to drop downward.
- Locate the power brake vacuum booster input rod to brake pedal attachment under instrument panel. Position a small screwdriver between the center tang on the power brake booster input rod to brake pedal pin retaining clip. See Fig 3. Rotate screwdriver enough to allow retaining clip center tang to pass over end of brake pedal pin. Then pull retaining clip off brake pedal pin. Discard retaining clip. Replace with a new retaining clip when assembled.
- Remove the 4 nuts attaching power brake vacuum booster to dash panel. Nuts are accessible from under dash panel in area of the steering column and pedal bracket assembly. See Fig 4.
