Better: buy a new one from Dave Bean Engineering. The cast alloy master cylinders are very difficult to hone to a suitable finish at home. By my calculations, the hassle involved in removing it agai

Are you using the stock manifold with PCV valve intact? If so, then the #3 is where the oil blowby will be deposited, causing soot and eventually wet fouling. You can, for a while, help the problem
