need help!! I have purchased a new dual circuit brake master cylinder and would like to know what model ford, golf or volvo divided reservoir fits directly into master cylinder

vw54 ·

none of them with out some fiddling

The closest one is the Series 1 Golf it has the same centers for the outlet but you may have to get some different rubers to allow a good airtight seal

Ive had this on my car for over 10 years now no probs

thanks I will give that a go you dont know what rubbers by any chance?

i had to make an adaptor bush up to go from the different sizes to make it fit i used a bit of nylon and glued it to the reservior outlet

the later ones may also fit and have bigger outlets to match the bug inlets u may have to visit the wreckers with yr master cylinder

its a goo mod as it hide the brake fluid reservior out of the way
