Vacuum Brake Booster: Adjustments
Brake Booster Pushrod Clearance Adjustment
Special Tools Required
-
Booster Piston Holder 070AB-SJA0100
NOTE:
-
Brake booster pushrod to piston clearance must be checked and readjusted before installing a new master cylinder.
-
The master cylinder assembly comes with a tool that must be used to adjust the clearance between the brake booster pushrod and the master
cylinder piston.
-
Use only the tool that comes with the new master cylinder to check the pushrod clearance. Do not use any other tool.
-
Make sure to discard the tool supplied with the master cylinder after its use.
-
The brake booster must be installed on the vehicle before doing the pushrod clearance adjustment.
-
If the booster is removed, check the pushrod length (A) as shown. If the length is incorrect, loosen the pushrod locknut (B), and turn the clevis (C)
in or out to adjust.
1. Remove the master cylinder See: Hydraulic System/Brake Master Cylinder/Service and Repair.
2. Measure the clearance between the tool (A) supplied with master cylinder and brake booster pushrod (B). Make sure that the tool is lying flat
against the surface (C) of the brake booster, and that the tip of the tool contacts the pushrod. If the tool will not lie flat (D) or there is a gap (E)
between the tool and the pushrod, go to step 3. If the clearance is correct, go to step 4.
