Hi all,

I’ve got a Sprint and 1300 servo. I’ve never driven with either of them. I’m doing an engine conversion and might be short of space. However, working condition is another consideration.

Is there anything I can do to test them without the engine running ?

Thanks, Richard

It is very easy with a Sprint servo to push the piston too far to the extent it punches its way through the Bakelite disc within, shattering it. The discs are currently obsolete and it effectively scraps the servo. This is also common with a single line system if the pedal is depressed with no fluid in the system!

So, be very careful!
