Is there an easy way of testing the servo on my clutch?

I haven't driven her for a month or so before today and the pedal seemed heavier than I recall.

Very heavy in fact.

 

Thanks in advance.

With the engine off, the clutch pedal will be very hard, once the engine has started the pedal should become very easy to press.

I'm amazed by how light my clutch is thanks to the vacuum assist, so if you feel it is very heavy then it seems you have a problem, but I would think it would act like you have a boost leak.

I will try the before and after firing the engine up and see if there is any change.

Could the servo have failed without causing a direct vacuum leak?

There should be a one way valve in the vac pipe. If your servo is leaking it won't affect your boost.

With the engine off, very heavy clutch as expected.

Engine running there was a definite difference, but not a great deal.

Although it is a bit lighter, it still feels heavier than usual.

Also, did hear a unhealthy metal on metal kind of sound each time I depressed the clutch.

More noticeable with the engine not running.

There metal to metal sound could be your clutch release bearing collapsing

There should be a one way valve in the vac pipe. If your servo is leaking it won't affect your boost.

 

The one way valve will still make it leak cause that's the way its pulling it through if u turn the valve the other way you'll have no leak and no servo lol...

It sounds like something is wrong in the box...hope u get it sorted...
