Turns out the split pipe ( although definitely not helping matters) wasn't the only problem.....
There's a one way valve that plugs into the servo that the vacuum line from the pump connects to........I'm 99% sure the original valve on mine was sometimes sticking so I changed it for a brand new one yesterday. You could feel it hesitate to open when blowing through it. The new one would open instantly. Finger's crossed this has finally sorted it out.
Part number for the valve is...
Bosch or Bendix servo 4599 15
Teves servo 4599 25
Bitch of a job to get your hand in there to do it when it's at the top of the servo on the left hand side underneath the MC!
Made a couple of phone calls to price a new servo up, just in case.....
