I have recently changed my brake master, and I've had some issues.
One of the things that was suggested was that the rod from the brake pedal to the master may not be the correct depth. The rod was set perfectly for the prior master, but that was 17 years ago. I'm going to pull the pedal cluster out to check depth. What is the right way to make sure the plunger is the right length? Zach |

It's pretty easy. Loosen the nut(s) that Bruce pointed out and extend the rod until it kisses the MC piston. Then back it off a half turn. I think the factory spec for the gap is 1mm. What you don't want is the pushrod making contact with the piston while the pedal is in its resting position.
