1. Use the vacuum pump to measure dimension "A"

applying a negative pressure of 66.7 kPa to the
brake booster.

Standard value (A):
10.0

− 10.1 mm <Vehicles without ASTC>

6.6

− 6.9 mm <Vehicles with ASTC>

NOTE: When a negative pressure of 66.7 kPa is
not applied to the brake booster, the push rod pro-
trusion amount (A) should be 9.0

−

9.1 mm <Vehi-

cles without ASTC> , 7.7

−

7.9 mm <Vehicles with

ASTC>.

2. If the protrusion amount is not within the standard

value range, adjust the push rod length by turning
the push rod. Use the special tool push rod
adjusting socket (MB991568) to turn the push rod
while holding the rod spline with angle-nose
pliers.

>>C<< BLEEDING OF MASTER CYLINDER
ASSEMBLY

CAUTION

Be sure to use the specified brand and type of
brake fluid. Avoid mixing with other type of brake
fluid.

Brake fluid: DOT3 or DOT4

When removed the master cylinder assembly, bleed
the master cylinder in the following procedure to
make bleeding of the brake pipeline easier (When no
brake fluid is in the master cylinder).
1. Fill the brake fluid reservoir with the brake fluid.
2. Depress and hold the brake pedal.

AC000876

3. Another operator closes the master cylinder

outlets with his fingers.

4. In this condition, release the brake pedal.
5. Repeat Steps 2 to 4 for 3 or 4 times to fill the

master cylinder with the brake fluid.

• Check the inner surface of master cylinder body

for rust or pitting.

• Check the primary and secondary pistons for

rust, scoring, wear or damage.

• Check the diaphragm for cracks and wear.
