Master Cylinder What Pipe Goes Where

[Lan 24 1 Cars]

Each pipe goes to each corner looking down onto it so the ones on the end are for the front and the ones at the back are for the rear

 

almost! most if not all modern-ish non-abs cars have a diagonal split system, so for example two ports at the front one goes to o/s/f the other goes to n/s/r then with the rear two ports one for n/s/f and the other for o/s/r the idea being that if you have brake pipe/hose failure you still have at least one front and rear brake operating which allows you to slow down in a straight line albeit very slowly, rather than one axle operating particularly if you lose the fronts!

yes that is true, I was under the impression he had a 4 port master cylinder and you did say each port for each corner of the vehicle

I have changed it to a 4 port set up and in the middle of doing the copper pipes but now thinking I'm will refit the 3 port and get hold of another 1.6 limiter

Its £82.56 our money but i should be able to get it at a good price (hopefully 50% off) i will ask him for a quote it will go with the 405 exhaust i have got so shipping would be £10 that includes £5 international money transfer. Then you would have UK post to yourself.
