Hissing like a Fcuker! Plz Help

[Anonymous]

There was a post on here a while back about brake servos hissing. Mine was doing it on my SR, so today i changed it for a TD one. Guess what? the bloody thing is still hissing! Is this servo worn as well, or is this normal operation? plz help

cheers :-/

Check the vacume pipe that goes into the inlet manifold. On the end of the pipe that goes into the servo, there's a rubber grommet, which sits in the hole and acts as a seal, these are really easy to tear, and this leads to an air leak = hissing sound. check this mate, there about ?3.50 from Vauxhall.

Hope this helps

Also when fitting the little rubber grommet put a LITTLE oil on the inside hole so the pipe can slide in without tearing it. (I found out the hard way, how fragile they are!)
