I never bother with the kits, as, if you dont hone the bore it won't last
anyway plus obviously the bore will be slightly larger giving it a lower
lease of life, if you get new ones readily, go for a new one. the squeak
will come from the clutch pedal, the shafts want oiling every sooften and
the spring itself might start to squeal, a bit of grease might help there. A
split in the cap is not helping matters at all as the fluid might draw
water, Not to be recommended for the brake master.
