I've been doing my searching on installing a new master cylinder and,
many seem to suggest completely taking out the feed lines and installing them into the master cylinder outside of the car. Seems simple enough, but, how are the feed lines reinserted back up to the reservoir? This is with the gas tank in. |

I have never tried this approach - but it seems that it might be a little easier to seat the feed lines into the M/C outside of the car.
Anyhow, you will need to seat the lines in the MC, tape up or plug the hose ends - and fish it backup up the tub. You will see that there are two short sections of cloth braided hoses that connect the feed lines to the resivour - reattach there. I would imagine that it will not be that difficult to get the hoses past the gas tank, a helper would make this quicker. |
