Servo Assembly

  1. Disconnect ball chain from carburetor, if used. Separate 8-way connector at amplifier, then connect an ohmmeter between Orange/Yellow dashed wire and Gray/Black dashed wire at connector. A resistance of 40-125 ohms should be obtained.
  2. Connect ohmmeter between Orange/Yellow dashed wire and White/Pink dashed wire at connector. A resistance of approximately 60-190 ohms should be obtained on Vans, and 60-90 on all other models. Reconnect the ball chain to carburetor. Start engine with servo-to-amplifier connector disconnected. Verify that engine vacuum exceeds 2.5 in. Hg.
  3. Connect Orange/Yellow dashed wire of servo to battery positive terminal. Connect White/Pink dashed wire to ground, and then momentarily touch Gray/Black dashed wire of servo to ground. Servo throttle actuator should tighten bead chain or actuator cable and open throttle.
  4. Throttle should hold in that position or slowly release tension. When White/Pink dashed wire is removed from ground, servo should release tension immediately. If servo fails any of preceding tests, replace servo.
CAUTION: If Orange/Yellow dashed wire is shorted to either White/Pink dashed wire or Gray/Black dashed wire, it may be necessary to replace amplifier.
