3 Brake Booster with Master Brake Cylinder

On gasoline engines, the required vacuum is supplied either by the intake manifold or by a vacuum pump.

Functional check:

- Forcefully press brake pedal several times with engine switched off. This dissipates any vacuum present in the unit.

- Depress and hold brake pedal with average foot pressure and start engine. If brake booster is working properly, pedal will be felt to give noticeably under foot (booster assistance becomes effective).

If malfunctioning: replace as complete unit.
