Volvo 740 Brake Booster

The main advantage of the Volvo 740 Brake Booster is that it increases the pressure on the brake pedal, and the car can come to a halt rather quickly without strong leg muscle effort. The Brake Booster, which is situated between the master cylinder and the pedal arm, is dependent on two assistance styles. The vast majority of versions are fed by the engine via a vacuum chamber. At rest, the same vacuum is on either side of a flexible diaphragm, and therefore no extra push is provided. When the pedal is pressed, a valve opens, allowing outside air to rush through the rear section, and this shift in pressure causes a power piston to be pushed, whose movement provides powerful braking with minimal effort. A hydraulic unit, which borrows pressurised steering fluid or uses an electric pump, was adopted in some Volvo 740 cars in the line, thus helping even with weak engine vacuum. The hydraulic design is good at repeated high-load stops, and the lighter vacuum shell remains reliable and simple to service. Volvo models of the same year were similar in terms of their basic mounting points, and thus swapping was easy. Once an engine stalls, the remaining vacuum or fluid charge can provide the necessary assist for just a few presses, and then the effort on the pedal suddenly increases, an easy indication that the Brake Booster is no longer assisting. This choice enabled Volvo to retain a steady and confident pedal touch for drivers across all Volvo models.

Volvo 740 Brake Booster Parts and Q&A

  • Q: How to check the power brake function and carry out the removal and installation of the brake booster on Volvo 740?
    A:
    To check the power brake function, deprive it of vacuum by depressing the brake pedal about five times, then depress the brake pedal and start the engine - its position should drop slightly if functioning properly. For a pressure test of the system, brake pedal pressure should be applied for approximately 20 seconds and then high pedal pressure applied for 5 seconds. pedal position should not drop as a drop in the pedal position indicates brake fluid leakage or a booster vacuum leak. For removal and installation purposes, first disconnect the negative battery cable and then remove the master cylinder and disconnect the vacuum hose and check valve from the booster. If necessary, disconnect the fuel filler and the vacuum pump and place them out of the way. Inside the vehicle, remove the soundproofing and disconnect the brake pedal rod, remove the power booster retaining nuts and remove the power booster. Before the installation of the new booster check the valve seal and replace it if necessary, making sure that the flange of the seal is correctly positioned. For the 2 x 8 inch booster, place the sealing washer and seal on the booster and then place the booster back in the car. Reconnect the brake pedal to the booster rod, refit the soundproofing and install the master cylinder, check valve and vacuum hose. Finally, bleed the brakes and clutch if fitted, and reconnect the negative battery cable.
