Re: Part numbers for repairkit brake master cylinder
Made an offer now, but it seems like the seller does not want to send the goods abroad, waiting for a reply. The rally went well btw, but the brakes are even more weak after this.

Re: Part numbers for repairkit brake master cylinder
The seller would send to Sweden, so now there´s a new cylinder on it´s way. Took off the old one and yes, the servo was half full of fluid.
Re: Part numbers for repairkit brake master cylinder
Don't throw the old one away. If the cylinder walls are okay it's quite simply to repair.

Re: Part numbers for repairkit brake master cylinder
No I´ll keep it. Looked ok inside, but the seals on the bottom piston was totally perished. Will look for a repair-kit at Beaulieu. Hope the new cylinder will arrive soon, want to get back out on the road.
Re: Part numbers for repairkit brake master cylinder
My "new" brake master cylinder arrived today, in a ziplock bag. I haven't opened it yet, but although it may well be new and unused, it does have a fair bit of corrosion on the machined surfaces, so it hasn't been kept in ideal conditions.
Oh, well. I think I'll keep it as a spare and look for a repair kit for my existing one. I suppose for the price I paid, it wasn't exactly a bad purchase.

Pity no ones asked. I have a spare one I won't be using I could let go reasonably priced.

Never thought to ask here.
Buying from eBay is very addictive, though.

What are you asking for it? Could be a good idea to keep a spare now that we have three Midases in Sweden.manifold wrote:Pity no ones asked. I have a spare one I won't be using I could let go reasonably priced.
Re: Part numbers for repairkit brake master cylinder
I'm open to offers (plus ship). Its a non oem one but its just the same. You need to reuse existing reservoir with this one.

Re: Part numbers for repairkit brake master cylinder
Got my master cylinder friday, looked really good with only a small spot of surface rust. Will try to find time to finish the swap this week. Hope it will be ok.
