re siteing servo
I have recently had a servo fitted and it works well. It was fitted by a reputable garage and they fitted it for a good price and they refurbished the master cylinder. ( i wanted the brakes done by professionals for saftey.) I provided the servo kit but thay have installed the unit in, for me, a bad position.They have put it quite high and forward on the inner wing on the left (looking under the bonnet) and it is displacing the heater air tube and i would have preffered it low on the same inner wing closer to the back, It would mean re siteing the washer bottle but thats easy. Is moving the unit as easy as it might seem, the brake pipes will not need lengthening nor will the pipe from the manifold.
Easy enough I would say - just don't kink the brake pipes when wrestling with it. The original stand-alone servos were supposed to be installed in a slightly 'nose up' stance, dunno if that's the case with servos these days, but worth checking exactly how it's set now before you move it.
