  2. Remove Push Rod Adjustment Gauge from master cylinder, and mount on brake booster. Tighten mounting nuts 11 ft. lbs. (15 N.m) Using engine or outside vacuum source, apply a minimum of 20 in. Hg vacuum to brake booster.
  3. Using a feeler gauge, ensure clearance is 0-.016" (0-.41 mm) on Integra or 0-.008" (0-.20 mm) on Legend. See Fig 2 . If clearance is incorrect, loosen star lock nut, and turn adjuster in or out to adjust clearance. Hold clevis while adjusting.
