13. Attach the J 22805-B to the booster using the master cylinder retaining nuts.



14. Unlock the booster from the front of the cowl.

Use a flat bladed tool to depress the brake booster locking tab (1) out of the cowl mounting flange, while turning the booster counterclockwise with a ratchet on the J 22805-B  (2).

15. Remove the vacuum brake booster.
16. Remove the J 22805-B  (2) from the booster.

Notice: Internal components of this booster are not serviceable. The housing must not be unstaked and separated. Separating the housing will cause permanent deformation, preventing the booster from holding proper volume.

Notice: Inspect the locking flanges on booster and mounting plate. Replace the booster and mounting plate if the locking flanges are bent or damaged.

1. Install the vacuum brake booster.

Position the vacuum brake booster on the cowl counterclockwise from the final installation position so that the locking flanges on the vacuum brake booster and on the cowl mounting flange engage.

Important: Ensure that the locking tab and the flanges are in the fully engaged position.




2. Turn the vacuum brake booster clockwise with a ratchet on the J 22805-B  (2). DO NOT use a flat bladed tool in the locking tab to install the vacuum brake booster. When the vacuum brake booster is correctly installed, the locking tab (1) slides up the flange and engages the locking notch.
3. Remove the J 22805-B  (2) from the installed vacuum brake booster.
4. Install the brake pressure modulator valve. Refer to Brake Pressure Modulator Valve Bracket Replacement .
5. Install the transmission fluid filler tube bracket retainer and reposition the filler tube. Refer to Transmission Fluid Filler Tube Replacement .
6. Install the EGR valve. Refer to Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve Replacement for the 3.8L engine.
