Water in servo
« on: January 27, 2010, 20:43:44 »
I had to put a new servo on my 90 today and found the old servo was half full of water. During the freeze I was going to have some fun but the brake pedal was rock hard (or should that be ice hard).

I think deep wading, although fun is getting to be to expensive, so from now on i'm staying in the shallows

Yeap, although the servo is powered by vacuum from the pump/engine it works by venting the back side to atmorspheric pressure, via a foam filter around the input shaft.
