The problem isn't so much that the servo fills with
water, flooding compartment after compartment -
although the driver DOES get that sinking feeling.
Like fog on a bathroom mirror, condensation forms on
the gears, wires, and vacuum ports in the upper areas.
That's all it seems to take.
One other problem a servo can encounter that I forgot
to mention is the valve itself. If a servo hasn't been
used in a long time, the valve can stick to the sides
of the housing. It seems to me that I actually had the
end of the valve come off, once. Of course, that let
all the water through, which turns your interior into
an oven.
