Pipe From Brake Servo To Inlet Manifold

[Guest wildejon]

Hi,

 

I am trying to connect these two parts as they are meant to be. Once again the part supplied by Robin Hood is totally the wrong shape and also too short (love it), so... what is the best solution for this?

 

Thanks in advance

More info needed really. What engine, what inlet manifold and what brake servo?

[Guest wildejon]

Sure, sorry.

 

Its a Superspec, Rover T series, standard inlet I presume, the servo is a ford one, although I don't have the part number on me. Is that any more help? Thanks

Hi Jon,

 

I have just had a look at my parts, (also for the Rover engine), and the supplied part number for the servo / inlet vacuum pipe is GSM 90186. Ths is in a Unipart poly bag.

 

There are also some numbers at the bottom of the label, which are: 54 Fg1 882 483 002 07988. Thinking about it, don't know which is the part number now!!

 

There is also a cadmium plated sdrew in adapter for the inlet manifold, for this pipe, but I don't know if this comes as standard with the part above as there was hole in my bag and the adapter was rolling around in my parts box.

 

I'll take a piccy once I find the camera and you'll see that the supplied part above doesn't appear to be correct, there will be some 'technical adjustment' required, but the part does have the push fit plug for the servo and non-return valve fitted.

 

Piccy to follow, hope this helps.

 

Cheers

Hi Jon,

 

Picture hopefully attached. As you can see, it probably won't fit without some major adjustment!!

As its only vacuum pipe, any non colapsing pipe or hose will do, i have run thick wall silicon hose and used a rigid connector to join to the original ford pipe.

You will need to make sure that there is a non-return valve in the line to hold the vacuum in the servo.

Hi,

 

Yeah, that is exactly what we have.. and it doesn't fit at all. lol

 

OK, so I can maybe use a portion of that to connect to the servo and then make the rest up with some tubing? Don't really wanna mess this part up, being the brakes 'an all!

 

Thanks

Hi

 

My Superspec had the parts..

 

They fitted 100% with just an extension clipped in .

 

Make sure you have the other addapter for the power steering pump that allows you to pipe up a loop otherwise pump will sieze very quickly.

Hi Tony,

 

Don't want to sound daft, but what does the power steering pump adapter look like?

I think it's just a small part that allows you to attach a rubber hose in a loop between the two conections.

Thanks Dan, will have to have a looksee if I have something that may resemble something like this.
