Master cylinder

Post by eric.geiger »

Does anyone have a good piston assembly from a 13/16 master cylinder?? I went to rebuild my brakes today and got everything done but then I went to do the master cylinder and the piston is seized up inside it. I have new gaskets and seals for it already.
I'm lookin to buy a working piston assembly or if needed a whole 13/16 master cylinder.
I already have a new sleeved master cylinder and all the fixins I just need the piston. But I'll buy a whole of needed.
I also have a clean 3/4 master cylinder if anyone wants to trade or needs one.

Eric,
I have yet to see a MC i couldn't disassemble (8 for 8).  Step 1, remove externals and soak in water for a day (yes, water desolves the crystalized brake fluid).  Step 2, get a block of wood, and hammer the MC on it, the recoil will shake the piston loose.

I will attempt this then.
Water is ok then? Just no solvents.

There are several people online that can take care of that.  You can get rebuild kits, you can get re sleeved MC whatever your pocket book can handle.
www.Honda600carparts.com is where I've bought several rebuild kits and a sleeved master. There are  other places online as well. Several people have eBay stores that have parts  Kurt
