3. Disconnect the brake line at the front of the master
cylinder.
4. Allow the brake fluid to fill the master cylinder until
it begins to flow from the port.
5. Reconnect the brake line at the front of the master
cylinder.
6. Slowly push and hold the brake pedal.
7. While the brake pedal is pushed down, loosen the
brake fitting at the front of the master cylinder to
purge the air from the cylinder.
8. Slightly tighten the brake fitting. Then release the
brake pedal slowly. Wait 15 seconds before continu-
ing with the next step.
9. Repeat Steps 6-8 until all of the air is removed
from the master cylinder bore.
10. Tighten the brake line fitting.
Installation Notice
11. After the air has been bled at the front connection,
bleed the master cylinder at the rear connection
using the same sequence as with the top
connection.

13. Slowly push and hold the brake pedal. Avoid rapid
pumping of the brake pedal.
14. While the brake pedal is pushed down, loosen the
bleeder valve to purge the air from the caliper.
15. After the air bubbles have escaped into the
container of brake fluid, slightly tighten the rear
bleeder valve.
16. Slowly release the brake pedal. Wait 15 seconds
before proceeding with the next step.
Notice: Keep brake fluid away from painted
surfaces because brake fluid will damage the paint
finish.
17. Repeat Steps 13 - 16 until all of the air is removed.
You will know all of the air is removed when no
bubbles appear in the container when the bleeder
valve is loosened. Keep the master cylinder reser
voir at least one-half full during the bleeding
operation.
18. Tighten the front bleeder valve.
Installation Notice 12. Attach a transparent tube over the rear bleeder
valve at the right rear caliper. Allow the tube to
hang submerged in the brake fluid in a transparent
container. (After the right rear caliper is bled in
the following steps, use this procedure at the left
front, the left rear and the right front bleeder valves.)
19. Bleed the remaining calipers in the following order
: left rear, right front, and left front. Use the
procedure in Steps 12 - 17.
20. After all calipers have been bled, check the brake
pedal for sponginess. If the brake pedal is not firm,
repeat the entire bleeding procedure to correct this
condition.
Tightening Torque 10 Nm (89 lb-ft)

4B-2 MASTER CYLINDER
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The master cylinder is designed for use in a parallel
split system. One front and one parallel to rear brakes
are served by the primary piston. The opposite front
and rear brakes are served by the secondary piston.
The master cylinder incorporates the functions of the
standard dual master cylinder, plus a low fluid level
indicator. The brake fluid level switch is attached under
the body of the plastic brake master cylinder reservoir.
Notice: Do not use lubricated shop air on the brake
parts, because oil will damage the rubber components.Important:•Replace all the components included in the repair
kits used to service the master cylinder.
Lubricate the rubber parts with clean brake fluid to
ease assembly.
If any hydraulic component is removed or discon-
nected, it may be necessary to bleed all or part of
the brake system. Refer to Section 4F, Antilock
Brake System and Traction Control System.
The torque values specified are for dry, unlubricated
fasteners.
Perform all service operations on a clean bench,
free from all traces of mineral oil.
