Yet another Tandem Master Cylinder installation

<< < (4/4)

LotusJoe:
While on the 914 forum today I ran across a link about master cylinder operations. I'm sure most of you know how a master cylinder works but the illustrations and explanations are quite good.

Thanks Joe.  Great pictures.

yep, very clear images. In fact I read the whole article from start to finish and have got to say that guy can really get things across, it's excellent.

I'm still puzzling over the inference that water is the big culprit in causing seals to swell (not sure on that)  but you can't argue with the main principle that it shouldn't be mixed in your brake fluid anyway. 

The logic and explanation of bench bleeding is very interesting.  I've never bothered with it before having had single circuit systems and no real problems, but the dual circuit m/cyls I've installed recently were more of a problem to bleed, so I wish I'd known then what I know now......  (does that sound familiar ?  :) )

Thanks for passing that on Joe

Brian
