Hello,

I have just completed a small winter project:
(too cold to work in the garage to finish my BN2 :-( ).


Assembly and descriptions are 1/3 way down the page:

p 

Detailed description, assembly & testing procedure is here:

I have made a similar 'test station' as described in document above - the
functionality is roughly equivalent to the original Girling/Volvo one:

If you are planning to rebuild it, I would recommend resleaving the pressure
cylinder in the alu body (I use a company called Past Parts in UK to do it).
Also, make sure your vacuum is tight & change all the bolts - especially
change the UNF bolts that hold canister to alu body to longer ones to be
able to tighten it better..

If you have any questions, shoot :-)
