Master cylinder brake hints and tips
(1) Bench-bleed the cylinder before installing.
(2) Use a flare wrench for inital loosening and final tightening of the lines.
(3) For brake master cylinder: adjust the pushrod length so that the freeplay is the same as the previous master cylinder (measure depth of bores, and adjust the pushrod the difference)
(4) Don't bend the line after it's loose
(5) Thread in the line fitting several turns by hand to avoid cross-threading, maybe even get this started before tightening the MC mounting bolts.
And I recommend lifetime warranty cylinders for this model, been through a few in 17 years with my '88.
