Run engine, then turn engine off
Pump the brakes a number of times then hold your foot on the pedal
With your foot still on the brake pedal, start the engine
If the servo is working, the pedal should go down a little bit more.

whats the name of the box that attaches from the vacuum pump? the one with the diaphragm?
What engine? No petrol Mk1s have a vacuum pump except some USA and other ones but that's for emissions reasons not braking. Not sure on diesels though.
