Volvo 960 Brake Booster

The Volvo 960 Brake Booster provides the much-needed muscle to your braking system in the sense that it increases force on the pedals so that the driver requires minimal leg effort. It is placed between the pedal and the master cylinder, and it has two major types, which are alike in that they aim at minimizing the effort of the driver. The common and old Volvo Brake Booster type is the vacuum booster that is connected either to the engine manifold suction or to an auxiliary pump. Releasing the pedal creates a vacuum in both halves of its shell and keeps an internal diaphragm stable. When the pedal is pressed, an air valve opens and fills the rear chamber with atmospheric pressure; the abrupt imbalance moves a power piston, which forces the master cylinder forward and applies the brakes. The second Volvo Brake Booster is the hydraulic booster, which replaces the air pressure method with fluid pressure from the power steering pump or an electric pump and equally allows strong help even when the engine vacuum is low. The vacuum unit remains lighter, easier, and renowned for its durability, whereas the hydraulic system is superior at providing constant assistance in high load situations or on engines where the manifold vacuum varies. The two designs are only effective for several stops after the engine stops, alerting drivers that there is limited assist stored. These Brake Booster solutions combined with each other promise all Volvo drivers quality braking performance that is responsive and reliable without excessive pedal pressure in the 960 line.

Volvo 960 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 960?
    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.
