Marina/Ital Brake Servo

[wilf]

Damn and blast - my servo has decided to make lots of hissing noises, but no discernable brake boosting effect, so.......


Anyone got a dual circuit Marina/Ital servo or servo overhaul kit? Or know where to go to find one? Nothing wrong with my master cylinder, it is the servo I need.

BTW - no point quoting my own post about JCL - he has a few master cylinders, but no servos. Grrr. Victim of my own helpfulness - he sold out about 4 weeks after I posted here a year ago!

Also, my usual suspects at JEM hydraulics can't help either.

Sorry Wilf, I've just sent my spare one to Ed (Bitsilly). PastParts will rebuild yours, or may sell you a rebuild kit. http://www.pastparts.co.uk/ HTH

Already tried Pastparts - no joy.

Powertrack will rebuild it - 1 month and £240. Like I am taking it off the road for a month right now! Silly people (and a silly price too).

This type of thing?

I am pretty sure the late Marina/Ital servo is a Girling unit, will check tonight, but yes, it is that sort of thing, just different.........

Wilf, Is it not possible to fit the ford servo/ master cylinder?? up date it??

Had to do this on mine, I had a MGB that went faulty which you can not buy anymore.

Wilf - from my recent expreience, it appears that there are at least two types of Ital/Marina servo which certainly differ in the size of M/C they will accept. I don't know whether the unit that I have fitted now is originally from a S/C Ital, but in the end, we got a Capri D/C M/C to fit it OK.
