(regulated to about 20 psi) to the primary outlet, while blocking the rear reservoir opening. Be sure to wear safety goggles.
11.
NON-ABS equipped vehicles only: Using the supplied dowel rod1 stroke and hold the primary piston and remove the snap ring from the rear of
the master cylinder, then remove the primary piston (Figure 5). Discard the old piston and snap ring.
Caution:
Be careful not to damage cylinder bore when using snap ring pliers.
Note:
Piston removal may require air pressure. Install the reservoir cap and apply compressed air (regulated to about 20 psi) to one primary outlet,
while blocking the other primary outlet. Be sure to wear safety goggles.
12.
With CLEAN HANDS, rinse the inside of the master cylinder and lubricate both of the seals on the new primary piston assembly with clean brake
fluid conforming to DOT 3 specifications. Insert the new piston assembly spring end first.
Note:
ABS pistons must be installed with the piston slot in a vertical position to allow for piston pin installation (Figure 4).
13.
ABS equipped vehicles only:
a.
Using supplied dowel rod, stroke and hold the primary piston approximately 3/4 inch. Insert new retaining pin into the same hole in master
cylinder body that the original retaining pin was in (Figure 3). When inserted properly, the end of pin should be almost flush with master
cylinder surface (Figure 6).
b.
Remove front reservoir grommet from the master cylinder body and discard. Verify that both primary and secondary piston pins are seated
(end of pins are almost flush with surface as shown in figure 6). Lubricate two provided reservoir grommets with clean brake fluid and
install grommets into the master cylinder body.
