Installation
Installation is carried out in the reverse order.
Clean the outside of the cylinder completely and carefully clamp it in a vice equipped with soft grips.
Loosen the clamp and remove the tank from the master cylinder.
Pull the boot out of the back of the master cylinder to access the piston circlip,
Compress the retaining ring, then remove it from the cylinder bore and remove the pushrod, piston assembly and spring.
Inspect the surfaces of the piston and cylinder. If they are scratched or corroded, replace the master cylinder assembly.
If the cylinder is in good condition, purchase a piston replacement repair kit that will contain all the necessary components.
Make sure all components are clean and dry and lubricate the piston assembly with fresh brake fluid.
Install the spring onto the piston, then carefully insert the assembly into the cylinder. Move the piston into its operating position with a twisting motion, being careful not to pinch the seal lips.
Attach the push rod to the end of the piston and install the retaining ring, making sure that it is properly seated in the cylinder groove. Check the function of the piston and pushrod assembly, then install the boot in working position on the master cylinder.
Install the tank on the cylinder and tighten the mounting clamp.
