Need new servo...
Well, servo on my GTV6 is dead, and my question is, can I swap servo from 75/Milano? Are they the same? Will it be a bolt-on install? How much would such part cost? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Pete

Pete,
If you do mean the brake booster, Two I have, one from a GTV6 and one from a 75 look identical, same part number. See photos below.
The GTV6 booster came from an accident damaged car and one mounting bolt is missing.

Great guys! Thanks! That's exactly it! Sorry for the word term "servo" which might have been misleading, I just thought that since it's certainly not a Polish word, and as it is with most of automotive vocabulary, it has to be derived from English Do you think that brake booster can be rebuild? Or I should better look for new one?
We call it the same thing in Swedish.
The 4-cyl booster looks much flatter and has a bigger diameter on the 75.
Get a new (or good used) one.

Yesterday, I talked to a nice guy which apperaed to be an alfisti with quite serious alfa collection, he has offered me such servo for circa 35 Euros. Quite decent price I think.
OT,
Mats,
And as far as linguistic similarities are concerned know it's the same thing with such words like "kula", or "smak"

The stock brakes on the GTV6 should work very very well. If not, start by looking at the check valve on the driver's side of the intake plenum. If it's not functioning correctly you won't get much power assist. Of course the vacuum line from the boost to the check vavle has to be good, and the engine has to be generating enough vacuum at idle.
If all of these things are ok, and the booster is functional, it's a caliper/pad/adjustment issue.

I'll take a wild guess and say you brake hoses have never been changed. I changed them on my 75 when I bought it and i made a HUGE difference (quite cheap too).
