BTW, the green service manual says there should be 6" of travel in the pedal. Not knowing how bad your "play" is, if the servo/vacuum booster works then you should need little effort to have the power assisted brakes engage. When the booster stops working, you will have to push about 50-60 lbs, not just a touch.

How 'bout that guy with a working AC??? What luck. I don't even have a compressor in mine.
