According to the Moss catalogue, which lists different master cylinders
for TR3 and TR4. It lists a 0.75 bore for TR4 to CT5783, and 0.70 bore
for TR4 from CT5784 through 4A

>Quick question.......Is the TR3 Master cylinder interchangeable with
the TR4. I received my new M/C from Truechoice and when looking in my
manuals I noticed that the boot area that surronds the push rod ass'y is
different. It appears that the M/C I'm replacing also is not original.
It has a screw in reservoir.

the bore size. Is this correct for a TR4(1965)?

leakage? I am using DOT 3/4 castrol brake fluid.
