DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Brake Booster —
Vacuum
Power Brake Booster
The vacuum type power brake booster (2005):
zis a dual diaphragm, vacuum assisted power brake booster
z reduces brake pedal force and travel distance.
z is located on the LH side of the bulkhead in the engine compartment, between the brake pedal
(2455) and the brake master cylinder (2140).
z is divided into separate chambers by the diaphragms.
z will not operate if vacuum is restricted or if any of the vacuum related power brake components
fail.
z is installed as an assembly.
If the power assist fails, the brake system will continue to operate with increased brake pedal effort.

z
is located on the front of the power brake booster.
z is installed separately; (install a new grommet when installing a new check valve).
z is positioned between the power brake booster and the power brake booster hose.
z closes when the engine is turned off.
z in the closed position, traps engine vacuum in the power brake booster
z retains vacuum to provide several power assisted brake applications with the engine off. Item Part Number Description

GENERAL PROCEDURES
Purging —CII Power Steering Pump
CAUTION: If the air is not purged from the power steering system correctly, premature
power steering pump failure can result. This condition can occur on pre- delivery vehicles with
evidence of aerated fluid or on vehicles that have had steering component repairs.
1. NOTE: A whine heard from the power steering pump may be caused by air in the system. The
power steering purge procedure must be performed prior to any component repair for which
power steering noise complaints are accompanied by evidence of aerated fluid.
Remove the reservoir cap. Check the fluid level. If necessary, fill the reservoir to the correct
level.
zUse Motorcraft MERCON® Multi-Purpose ATF XT -2-QDX or MERCON® equivalent.
2. Tightly insert the Vacuum Pump stopper into the reservoir.
3. Start the vehicle.
4. Using the special tool, apply maximum vacuum and maintain it for a minimum of three minutes with the engine speed set at idle. SECTION 211-

6.
CAUTION: Do not overfill the reservoir.
Check the fluid level. If necessary, fill the reservoir to the proper level. zUse Motorcraft MERCON® Multi-Purpose ATF XT -2-QDX or MERCON® equivalent.

8.
CAUTION: Do not hold the steering wheel against the stops for more than three to
five seconds at a time. Damage to the power steering pump will occur.
Cycle the steering wheel fully to the left and right every 30 seconds for approximately five
minutes.
9. Stop the engine, release the vacuum, and remove the special tool.
10. Install the reservoir cap.
11. Check for fluid leaks at all of the connections. If the power steering fluid shows signs of air, repeat this procedure. Klj . 3 ba
