If this is faulty you will lose vacuum, which is not your experience - quite the opposite!

The cause will be one of two issues:

The inlet valve on the servo not quite seating, allowing atmospheric pressure to exert a force on the servo's diaphragms, or

The mater cylinder is not returning fully, so retaining hydraulic pressure in the system.
