Hi Just wondering what the difference between the 2 was? ie can you buy a set of 2 "clutch master cylinders" and run the brakes with one? thanks, - tom |

You need a brake master cylinder for the brakes & a clutch master cylinder for the clutch, if you mix them around neither will work. Doogie |

The brake cyl has a slow return valve fitted inside, & you can fit that into a clutch cyl , then it will be a big diameter brake cyl, pedal will be harder & higher than normal & more pressure will need to be applied to the pedal for it to be as effective as the smaller (std) brake cyl. the brake cyl is normally a .7" item the clutch is best as a .75" diam |

the only prob with second hand ones, is that oncfe the metal tarnishes, they are almost not possible to get them looking like new again, wehreas the new ones come out lookeing great! Elmos is reallly good thanks mate, but looking to move him out of home tho. |
