master cyl cover

[geraldchainsaw]

like it says,  general discussion,   my master cyl on 1 of my cars leaks at the cover,  between the rubber  gasket and master cyl housing, I even got a new cover and rubber casket,  and it still leaks,   any ideas out ther e on  how to fix the problem?

IS the master cyl itself warped/uneven or gunked up so that it doesn't let it seal?

Run a straightedge across the top to see if it is flat.

Is this a new m/s or have you had it on the car for a while?

maybe you need to adjust the brake shoes closer to the drums. if they have too much travel, you may have added too much brake fluid and it comes spilling out the air bleed hole in the cover, once the brake shoes slowly get back to their og position. do you have any residual valves in the lines ?
