I replaced my MC with a new 19mm version 2 years ago and the damn thing is leaking fluid. I'll sell the car before I go through the trauma of trying to replace the evil thing again. I checked 914Rubber site to see if they still carried their version with the "easy" installation mods and they don't show it (or even the regular one). Anyone know if this has gone the way of the dodo?

I found it easy to unbolt the tank and lift enough to undo the hoses/reservoir. Then I could pull the master down enough to get a good grip on everything.
My 914rubber master didn't fit the factory washers so never installed it. If washers were supposed to come with it I never asked. The box was torn up during shipping so they could have fallen out. Figured I'd bring it up next order but haven't needed anything. I had a pair of grommets fail from being wrong rubber formula I suppose. On the list to fix again if I every get time. Don't tell Mark I'm replacing his with URO (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) Good for Matt, though I don't think he has much time for it either. |
