RE: [alfa] checking brake boosters

Ed -

You'd need to figure out a way to pull a vacuum on them, with a vacuum gauge
connected to the booster. (a handheld vacuum pump with a gauge on it comes
to mind, you'd have to get creative with some adapters.)

Pull a vacuum and see if it holds. If it does it is good, if not it is bad.

HTH,

Jeff

I have a collection of brake boosters from S2 spiders and a GTV. Is there a
way of checking them without installing them on a car?
