When overhauling a master cylinder, use all parts contained in repair kit. Before starting reassembly, dip all cups, seals, pistons, springs, check valves
and retainers in clean brake fluid and place in a clean pan or on clean paper. Wash hands with soap and water only to prevent contamination of rubber
parts from oil, kerosene or gasoline. During assembly, dip all parts in clean brake fluid.
Inspect through side outlet of dual master cylinder housing to make certain cup lips do not hang up on edge of hole or turn back, which would result in
faulty operation. A piece of 3-16 inch rod with an end rounded off will be helpful in guiding cups past hole.
When overhauling late model aluminum master cylinders, carefully inspect master cylinder bore for corrosion. If corroded, replace master cylinder.
Do not hone or use abrasives on the bore of these cylinders.
