Had a test drive and the brakes are better BUT not good enough. Back to the drawing board. Before replacing the servo the brake pedal was solid with almost no movement. It now moves but you have to put far too much effort in pushing the brake pedal to get the car to stop. Ok for a round the block test but not for everyday driving.
I am wondering about fitting an electric vacuum pump. I have been told that running 6 Weber carbs doesn't produce much vacuum.
Seems to have had new pads all round and the master cylinder doesn't look that old.
Does anyone have any experience fitting an electric vacuum pump?
