FYI: A year ago I change the original single brake master cylinder to a double ATF taken from a Mercedes Benz 220 (double master cylinders are mandatory by law here since 2003). Last month my brakes was suddenly too large. On a local brakes workshop we bleed the system with neumatic machines, but it remain too large after bleeding. A technitian disarm all: the servo (a lockheed) was shot due the ATF has a 1 1/8" piston diameter and it was inadequate (too big) to the system (blowing the seals on the servo after some months of use). I change it to a Brazilian Master Cylinder Varga V-14D (7/8" piston diameter) without the servo. I´ve good braking power again now.
