Master cylinder to booster Q
It's been a lot of years since I took this apart. Sure wish digital cameras were around back then, but I'm really glad we have this board today.
I want to make sure I get this back together correctly. Here's my questions. 1) Does the seal washer go the way I have it, or the reverse? (The other side is all rubber - no metal) 2) Does the boot go on this way? It scrunches up when put into the booster. Is there special way to install this? 3) Lastly, how is the adjuster on the rod used? Is there a measuremnet to make? Thanks a lot for your help. Ken

I believe the rubber goes in as you have shown.
You don't need a boot between the master cylinder and the booster. Usually no adjustment is needed. You can try to measure by using a thin scale that will reach down into the hole and measure to the surface of the master cylinder. then measure the rod protrusion from the mating surface of the the booster to see how far in the rod sticks. The rod should not bottom out but should have 1/16"-1/8" free play. Another way to confirm if you have play is to use a little clay in the master cylinder to see if it all gets squeezed out when assembled. Jim |
