A hydraulic booster tube removal begins with using the clamp compression tool followed by the master cylinder removal. Start by removing the brake pedal cotter pin cover then its cotter pin before setting the brake pedal position (BPP) switch and brake booster push rod out of way from the brake pedal pin. Tighten the four brake booster-to-brake pedal bracket nuts at 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.) strength when reinstalling. The installation process starts with brake booster hydraulic hose fitting O-ring seal replacement followed by executing the backward order of removal steps for brake booster assembly. Finish the power steering system filling process before performing the brake system bleeding. The accumulator requires delicate handling at all times while strict prohibition applies to carrying it by the accumulator and it must never be allowed to drop. Before disposal of the accumulator make a 1.6 mm (0.06 inch) diameter penetrating hole at its end while wearing safety goggles to protect yourself from injuries.
