The 1976 914 build continues, Question on the master cylinder lines from brake fluid reservoir. Do the hard lines from the reservoir just push into the rubber grommet on top of the master cylinder? I tried pushing the lines in, would not stay and leaked. Also, no click that I have read about. Are there washers that are installed before the flared end of the reservoir lines? Perhaps remove the rubber grommets from the master cylinder, install reservoir lines into grommets and then install assembly into master cylinder? What is the order the lines are pushed into the master cylinder? Where do the washers go? How deep do the hard lines fit into the grommets? Through the rubber grommet and into the master cylinder? Thanks in advance, stalled on this one. Steve

Removed Master cylinder grommets, no washers in the cavity. There were small washers included in a bag, now I know what to do. Curious manufacture would press rubber grommets in with no washers. So my problem was no washers in new, Master Cylinder. I think I will press reservoir lines into rubber grommets, install in Master Cylinder and then into car. Thanks for the help on this. Steve
