Re: master cylinder

They're a nightmare to find. Nobody keeps unos in scrapyards anymore as there arent many people who want bits so they get cubed straight away.

Re: master cylinder

the chance of you finding a ut master cylinder in a scrappy was always slim, i priced one up a while ago and they are expensive (£96) from my local motor factors, can you not get a rebuild kit? Ant! ring fiat!

Re: master cylinder

Symptoms of a bad master cylinder are that you'll have no brakes. When mine failed the other week the rear circuit still worked so I had rear brakes (but they don't do much) but the front circuit was completely gone. My foot also went straight to the floor when pressing the pedal.
