Master Cylinder Replacement
NOTE: Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may
damage the paint; if brake fluid does contact the paint,
wash it off immediately with water,
1, Remove the air cleaner assembly (A).
2, Disconnect the brake fluid level sensor connector
(A).

3. Remove the clutch reservoir (B) andenginewire
harness clip (C)from the master cylinder mounting
base (D).
4. Remove the reservoir cap and brake fuid from the
reservoir.
5. Remove the reservoir (E) on the master cylinder
mountrng Dase.
6, Disconnect the brake lines (F)from the master
cylinder (G). To prevent spills, cover the hose joints
with rags or shop towels.
7. Remove the master cylinder mounting nuts {H) and
washers.
8. Remove the master cylinder from the brake booster.
Be careful not to bend or damage the brake lines
when removing the master cylinder.
9. Remove the rod seal (l) from the master cylinder.
10. Installthe master cylinder in the reverse order of
removal, and note these items:
. Replace all the rubber parts with new ones
whenever the master cylinder is removed.
. Check the pushrod clearance before installing the
master cylinder. and adjust it if necessary (see
page 19-16).. Use a new rod seal on reassemblY. Coat the inner bore lip and outer circumference
of the new rod seal {A) with the recommended
seal grease in the master cylinder set.
. Installthe rod seal ontothe master cylinder with
its grooved side (B)toward the master cylinder.
. Check the brake pedal height and free play after
installing the master cylinder, and adjust it if
necessary (see page 19-6).

Brake Booster Pushrod Clearance
Adjustment
SpecialTools Required
Pushrod adjustment gauge 07JAG-SD40100
NOTE: Brake booster pushrod-to-piston clearance mustbe checked and adjustments made, if necessarV, beforeinstalling the master cylinder.
1. Setthespecial tool (A) onthe mastercylinder bodv(B), push in the center shaft (C) until the top of itcontacts the end of the secondary piston {D) byturning the adjusting nut (E).
Without disturbing the center shaft's position,
installthe specialtool (A) backwards on the booster.
Install the master cylinder nuts (B), and tighten
them to the specified torque.
Connecl the booster in line with a vacuum gauge
{C) 0-101 kPa {0'-760 mmHg, 30 in.Hg) to thebooster's engine vacuum supply, and maintain anengine speed that will deliver 66 kPa (500 mmHg,20 in.Hg) vacuum.

Gonventional Brake Components
IBrake Booster Test
Functional Test
1. With the engine stopped, press the brake pedal
several times to deplete the vacuum reservoir, thenpress the pedal hard, and hold itfor 15 seconds. lfthe pedal sinks, either the master cylinder is
bypassing internally, or the brake system (master
cylinder, lines. modulator, or calipers) is leaking.
2. Start the engine with the brake pedal pressed. lf thepedal sinks slightly, the vacuum booster is workingproperly. lf the pedal height does not vary, thebooster or check valve is faulty.
3. With the engine running, press the brake pedal
lightly. lfthe brake pedal sinks more than 1O mm
{3/8 in, ) in 3 minutes, the master cylinder is faulty.A slight change in pedal height when the Ay'C
compressor cycles on and off is normal. (The A,/C
compressor load changes the vacuum available tothe booster.)
Leak Test
1. Press the brake pedal with the engine running, thenstop the engine. lf the pedal height does not vary
while pressed for 30 seconds, the vacuum boosteris OK. lf the pedal rises, the booster is faulty.
2. With the engine stopped, press the brake pedal
several times using normal pressure. When thepedal is first pressed, it should oe row.
On consecutive applications, the pedal height
should gradually rise. lfthe pedal position does notvarv, check the booster check valve.
19-18
3. Disconnect the brake booster vacuum hose (check
valve built-in) (A) at the booster side.
5.
4.Start the engine, and let it idle. There should bevacuum available. lf no vacuum is available, thecheck valve is not working properly. Repiace thebrake booster vacuum hose and check valve, andrelesI.
Reconnect the brake booster vacuum nose.
Start the engine, and then pinch the brake boostervacuum hose between the check valve and thebooster,
Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait 30 seconds,Press the brake pedal several times using normalpressu re,
When the pedal is first pressed, it should be low.On consecutive applications, the pedal height
should gradually rise.
. lf the pedal position does notvary, replacethe
brake booster.. lf the pedal position varies, replace the brake
booster vacuum hose/check valve assembly.
