BRAKE BOOSTER

On Board Inspection


OPERATING CHECK

- With the engine stopped, change the vacuum to the atmospheric pressure by depressing brake pedal several times at intervals of 5 seconds.





- Then with brake pedal fully depressed, start engine and when the vacuum pressure reaches the standard, make sure that the clearance between brake pedal and floor panel decreases.

AIRTIGHT CHECK






- Run engine at idle for approximately 1 minute, and stop it after applying vacuum to booster. Depress brake pedal normally to change the vacuum to the atmospheric pressure. Make sure that distance between brake pedal and floor panel gradually increases.
- Depress the brake pedal while engine is running, then stop engine with brake pedal depressed. The pedal stroke should not change after holding pedal down for 30 seconds.
