[QUOTE="naskeet, post: 333390, member: 15903"] Retro-fitting vacuum servo assistance in 1988/89, to my family's 1973 VW "1600" Type 2 Westfalia Continental campervan, has certainly made driving more relaxing, now that we don't have to strain our leg muscles when using the brakes, whereas before, I almost felt the need to use both feet on the brake pedal, on those few occasions when emergency braking was required. So far, there have been no problems with the braking system, nor any need to top-up the silicone brake fluid, which whilst the van has been layed-up these past several years (for further modification and refurbishment), will have protected the steel hydraulic components from rusting, which very likely would have occurred, had the system been filled with water absorbent, polyglycol brake fluid.
