Rear Master Cylinder

Postby Rod Yeomans on Sun Jun 29, 2008 7:38 pm

Just letting you all know that the standard rear MC of a tonti with linked brakes can use the top of an Old El Paso Taco Sauce jar.

If you want to pressure bleed the brakes, cut a rubber gasket to fit for a seal.

Drill a hole in the lid and insert the appropriate air valve/nozzle you wish to use. Ensure it is well supported by washers and a firm nut as the lid is only thin.

Only use a couple of psi otherwise expect a shower of brake fluid. :shock:

This is true for any lid you may find.
