Master Cylinder: Notes
CAUTION:
- When removing the master cylinder from the vacuum booster, be sure to get rid of the internal negative pressure of the vacuum booster (by, for instance, disconnecting the vacuum hose) in advance. If any negative pressure remains in the vacuum booster, the piston may possibly come out when the master cylinder is being removed, letting the brake fluid run out.
- While removing the master cylinder, further, DO NOT hold the piston as it can be easily pulled out. Outside surface of the piston is the surface on which seals are to slide. Care should be taken to keep the surface free of cuts and dents.
NOTE:
The master cylinder is not repairable. If found defective, it must be replaced as a complete assembly.
