Deejay Has a lot to Say! Joined: Jun 2015 Posts: 1,190 North Somerset, UK	Originally Posted by Spizz Oil I received an email from the Morgan Sports Car Club that said inter alia: I wish to take this opportunity to address a misleading rumour that has been circulating, to which some of you referred in your responses: a report that the defective component was made in India. We were told that this is NOT the case: it was made by a reputable UK supplier. So how does that tally with the message my friend sent me for his plus four, as follows: “Out of interest I have just taken down all the Makers info off the Brake servo and pump cylinder. Exactly as Printed on the servo, it reads: “trenos IRUNA BRAKES/ REF PROVEEDOR 6107095/MADE in CEE LOTE No 1100.” On the master cylinder body it reads “LB095L 007A”. Doesn’t look very British to me!

Iruna are well known for their boosters and servos (and are fitted to a lot of vehicles) and as far as I'm aware there are no issues with the servo. I wonder if the 'LB' code on the master cylinder stands for 'Lucas Braking'? Lucas still exist under the TRW banner. That would tie in with the UK supplier bit? 1972 4/4 4 seater - 3G Morganeer Too many ratty motorbikes
