Looks like a lucas type.
My vectra has had one changed, after a seal broke leaking fluid into the servo.

The body is the same, the mounting looks a bit different ( the part that fits in the servo had a indent arround its circumference in this one, actual mounting holes look very sinilar.

what are the numbers stamped on the outside?

Mate of mine has a car accesory shop, might be able to track it down.

Numbers/characters stamped on mcyl body are usually for casting identification. One casting will be common to a range of different mcyls.

Mcyl depicted was evidently bolted on to a servo, possibly a tandem type (i.e. a BIG b**t**d). Stuffing the mcyl back into servo reduces the overall installation length. Yours could be out of Lucas/TRW Koblenz.

What are the code nos. on the mcyl body?

hi all.

Maybe i should've mentioned that its from an F reg XR4x4?! Might narrow it down a bit...

There are no legible markings on it, except the number 25 in big writing

It's identical to the one out of my H-reg Sierra Sapphire 2L DOHC donor (rear discs)
