- FWIW, I attempted to rebuild mine & was very frustrated when it worked for about a week before leaking all over the place again. Hey, it's about 30 bucks for a rebuild kit, but what is your stopping

- Jerry, here is what I know happened with mine and what I did. The cause of the missing fluid is from the failure of the seal inside the bore of the MC. Not only was the seal not doing its job, but th

- You have received some good advice on things to check to see what the cause actually was. I agree that this is one area that you do not want to leave to chance. You need to find the cause and replac

- Jim, in reference to my advice on using a C-clamp, I guess I didn't make myself clear as evidenced by some of the responses. I was not suggesting that you use a clamp with the caliper on the car, but

- Several years ago some new master cylinder caps got out into the market without a vent hole....it is a tiny hole, but very important. This is a long reach for a solution to your problem, but somethin
