Does anyone know the name of the company that rebuilds servos? I can't seem to find it in the forum. I thought it was Apple Hydraulics, but it doesn't look that way.

I'm afraid the diaphram is shot since even after new seals, it leaks onto my foot.
 
The only way you can get fluid leaking on your foot is if the master cylinder is leaking. Then, it would have to pass through the servo, which is, I suppose is possible, but unlikely. Are you sure its not the clutch master that is leaking on your foot??

Either way, you have to fix one of those masters.
 
Thanks martz...I just rebuilt the master cylinder will all new seals. It had no pitting and looks like it's a good rebuild. I was having this issue before and I thought it was the seal on the servo (where the MC connects). Should there be any fluid in the servo?
 
There should be NO FLUID in the servo. It's a vacuum chamber to assist in pedal pressure. It's possible the chamber got fluid in it from before the rebuild, but it still would have trouble getting into the car onto your foot. Check up underneath, and see if there is brake fluid dripping down from the rod where it goes through the firewall. Do you feel as if the power brakes are functioning?? If so, then the diaphragm should still be intact.

Check that clutch master...that may be the one that's leaking on your foot.
 
It's not the clutch MC. I can see and feel the leak. I do have brakes and they seem to function fine. I did empy the servo as much as possible, but there was just a little left I couldn't get out. Maybe that's it? It's only drops coming out. Now I don't know what to do.
