Servo Install

[Mr86t-type]

Guys,

Never installed one, after I remove the Snap Ring, how hard is it to remove, or will the spring pressure just push it out?? And as far as Install, without the Kent-Moore tool, how do I get it in enough to engage the snap ring???

This is Kirban/Superior Servo that Richard Clark recomends..

I used a snap on water pump pliers to remove that ring..

Depending on the car, ive had some fall out, and others be a pain.

You could get a large set of channel lock pliers and twist it out once the ring is removed, it doesnt just pop out.

Remove the guts, install the new ones, and when you seat the servo, check to see if you have room for the ring... Press it in firmly and look for the groove.

Lube the oring so it slides in easier.

Anyone use this Servo???

There are many, many of those out in service today.
They work well, although there are better alternatives out in the market today.

The best Servo I have seen is from Brian Hofer. Excellent price too.
