Subject: Re: LG45 brake servo
Hi Guys,

More on brake servos. First of all, the LG 45 Girling system is so different to the M45 one that I do not think that the servo will easily transfer from one to another without adaption.

However that is not what I have a question on. Has anyone had experience of adjusting (ie "timing") the M45 brake servo? I assume that as you press on the brake, so the linkage will open the valve and admit vacuum from the engine to operate the servo. If this valve opens too early or is open all the time, this will introduce air into the inlet manifold.

I would be interested in anyone else's experience here.
