1974 914 2.0  Group: Members Posts: 180 Joined: 6-June 16 From: Montana Member No.: 20,076 Region Association: Rocky Mountains  |
It feels like my brake master cylinder is going bad on my 1974 2.0. Since I've never rebuilt one or replaced one on the 914, I'm looking suggestions and parts sourcing. Any help out there?
Thank you. |

If everything is new, it could be that the pads haven’t fully bedded. Def check with Eric at PMB. A new master never hurts tho. And the “extra force” required for a 19mm is negligible on my car...
