Vacuum Brake Booster: Notes

The vacuum type power brake booster:

• Is a dual diaphragm, vacuum assisted power brake booster.
• Reduces brake pedal force and travel distance.
• Is located on the left side of the bulkhead in the engine compartment, between the brake pedal and the brake master cylinder.
• 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.
