I have a vacuum leak thru the brake servo on a 72 142E. You can hear the hissing in the passenger compartment that goes away when the brake pedal is depressed.
I believe it needs a new rear seal. The problem is that the seal is only listed as part of a repair kit that is no longer available. No luck through Volvo, Volvo dealers, GCP, and various other sources.

Does anyone know of a source of the repair kit or seal or any other alternatives other than replacing the servo?
