master cylinder oring replacement ?
I need to replace the o ring for my master cylinder resevior. How do I separate the resevior from the housing assembly. I am going to rebuild the master cylinder assembly and I want to replace the oring under the resevior but I don't see how it comes apart. Please help.Tags: None -
There are 2 phillips screws at the bottom of the MC reservoir. Remove these and pull off the plastic reservoir. Sometimes they can become alsmost welded in with dried out brake fluid so you'll have to pull like 'ell and twist at the same time - use a thick rubber band wrapped around the outside to get some grip. If that doesn't shift it try and very, very carefully pry the thing up with a thin blade screwdriver.79 GS1000S

If it is the M/C with the seperate white resrvoir that holds the lid on with 4 screws in the corner, you just have to lever it with a screwdriver. It has quite a tight circular fit into the metal part.Comment

Screw(s) hold the cap on the M/C. Wiggle it back and forth until it breaks free. Mine came off and it was on there for almost thirty years.Comment
