Clutch MC update

I removed the clutch MC. I sure never want to do that again! I was going to put in a used one from a cra I disassembled, but after that grief to get it out I am buying a new one in the hopes that I die before it ever goes out again! What a mess of parts and effort!

Don't put in a used clutch or brake master cylinder. It's not safe and it's not ecconomical.

I got my new MC in today. The only thing is it has a resevior on it. The one in the car doesn't. Will it still work?

Oh, I don't know that much about the Milanos. I think some used the brake master cylinder reservoir. I'm sorry, I might not be able to help on this. Try posting a cry for help in the suspension and brakes section.

Sounds like you got a GTV6 M/C. The GTV6 clutch M/C has its own resevoir. I'm not sure if there's a way to adapt it or if you have to have them send you another one.

I looked at it carefully and I believe it will work. Bawsically the old system shared a reservoir for both the brake and clutch. With one hose leading to the cluch MC for fluid. I basically sealed it up and the new reservoir sits in it's place. I'll shoot some pictures when I am done. I think it may actually be a better plan! Merry Christmas!

Who ever designed how the pedal box goes into the car should be drawn and quartered! It is such a pain in the ***, I have had thoughts of selling her! THat damn spring in the clutch pedal is so close to getting thrown arcoss the street!
