It doesn't have ABS, and it already has a servo, but I know what you mean.. set up a vacuum servo you mean. Yes, good option, but easier to buy a Toyota.

Are you sure, that everything is fine? Bomb pressure should never decrease significantly within a few days. May be the bomb is worn? Also the brake booster might be leaking, causing a lack of oil pressure.

You need to check / clean the filters of all banjos and the filter in the filter inside the reservoir (if present) as well. Check brake booster for leaks.
Ah, I see what you mean. Yes, the bomb is a brand new febi part, only six months old/3000km of use maybe.

I'm not sure what's going on, the bomb gives you about 30 assisted brake pedal applications before running out, it still works the next day before the engine is switched on. There was a tiny amount of some kind of oily stuff showing up on the road the other day when the rain was washing the road. I always blame the post man, because his gearbox or sump is leaking oil at a horrible rate! My rear crankshaft seal is leaking, you can see oil around the clutch bell housing.

I'll look for leaks very odd, it almost feels like an air bubble in the rack or something, like after it 'self bleeds' back into the G002000 reservoir all is well.

TOYOTA! (Joking)
