darom Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Guys, before I take this p.o.s. rebuilt master cylinder I was wondering if anyone had any luck fixing it? It leaks between the copper washer and the 23/24 mm nut on front/rear lines. The nut has the 10mm opening for the brake line. I torqued as much as I could those two nuts and the brake fluid still seeps through. The unit is a fresh rebuilt from rockauto. All lines are brand new. My plan was to take the master cylinder off, take those nuts off and file the surfaces of the cylinder itself, nut and both sides of the washer. Would this fix it or would you rather return the part back to the vendor for another rebuilt unit? I am afraid that I am going to get another hastely assembled unit. Thanks!

S130Z Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I changed mine out with a brand new one for all of $40. Auto Zone is GOD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
