Brake servo brand question

Hi Friends,

our Mk2 is loosing a bit of its brake fluid. Not much, but the line I drew at the container is now over the fluid level. It is the servo, because nowhere a leak is visible. Booster came new/reconditioned some years ago, so now I don’t want to pay the sum again and will install a Lockheed type. As I noticed there are two variants. The original Lockheed an one fabricated by Powertune.

Has anybody experiences or can give an advice what would be better to have ?

Best regards
Lindi

Hi Lindi,
Take the vacuum assist tube off and check the interior of the tube for traces of brake fluid; perhaps there is a leak in the master cylinder and it is being sucked into the intake manifold. This would explain no leaks on the floor. Another symptom would be whiteish coloured exhaust smoke… Article in Antique Auto Club America

Hi Jon,

that’s the right way. Thanks for your message.
