As far as I can remember, the Girling MKIIA servo is interchangeable with 
the earlier ones - should work in your tri-carb.  I seem to recall that the 
difference had something to do with the air filter on the servo.

Are you sure that yours cannot be rebuilt?  A sticking servo problem can be 
caused by a couple of different things.  They are routinely rebuildable if 
the bore in the body is okay, and the only way to tell is a visual 
examination once the thing is out, apart, and on the bench.

We have been using PBR replacement servos here - they are Autralian made, 
and a good piece.

Hi,

I have a MkII BT7 with a factory fitted servo. Don't all start shouting at
once..there were a few in the typically muddled switch over from BT7 to BJ7.



So, miy servo sticks occasionally and I suspect that the main bore is well
past its sell by date. There's a "Mk 2a" unit for sale over here. Will that
fit my car or is it BJ7s & 8s??



Yrs,

Simon.
