Brake Booster
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
Operating check
+Depress brake pedal several times with engine off. After
exhausting vacuum, make sure there is no change in pedal
stroke.
+ Depress brake pedal, then start engine. If pedal goes down
slightly, operation is normal.
Airtight check
+Start engine, and stop it after one or two minutes. Depress
brake pedal several times slowly. Booster is airtight if pedal
stroke is less each time.
+ Depress brake pedal while engine is running, and stop engine
with pedal depressed. The pedal stroke should not change after
holding pedal down for 30 seconds.
REMOVAL
CAUTION:
+Be careful not to splash brake ¯uid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake ¯uid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
+ Be careful not to deform or bend brake pipes, during
removal of booster.
INSPECTION
Output rod length check
1. Apply vacuum of þ66.7 kPa (þ500 mmHg, þ19.69 inHg) to
brake booster with a hand vacuum pump.
2. Check output rod length. Speci®ed length:10.275 - 10.525 mm (0.4045 - 0.4144 in)
INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
+Be careful not to deform or bend brake pipes during instal-
lation of booster.
+ Replace clevis pin if damaged.
+ Re®ll with new brake ¯uid ``DOT 3''.
+ Never reuse drained brake ¯uid.
+ Take care not to damage brake booster mounting bolt
thread when installing. Due to the narrow angle of
installation, the threads can be damaged by the dash
panel.

Purpose
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) consists of electronic and hydraulic components. It allows for control of
braking force so locking of the wheels can be avoided.
The ABS:
1) Improves proper tracking performance through steering wheel operation.
2) Eases obstacle avoidance through steering wheel operation.
3) Improves vehicle stability.
Operation
+When the vehicle speed is less than 10 km/h (6 MPH) this system does not work.
+ The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) has a self-test function. The system turns on the ABS warning lamp
for 1 second each time the ignition switch is turned ``ON''. After the engine is started, the ABS warning
lamp turns off. The system performs a test the ®rst time the vehicle reaches 6 km/h (4 MPH). A mechani-
cal noise may be heard as the ABS performs this self-test. This is a normal part of the self-test feature. If
a malfunction is found during this check, the ABS warning lamp will stay on.
+ While driving, a mechanical noise may be heard during ABS operation. This is a normal condition.
+ While DIFF-LOCK is on, the anti-lock brake warning light ¯ashes. This indicates that anti-lock may not be
fully operated. (ABS only)
