DISASSEMBLY
1) Remove circlip (1).
2) Remove primary piston.
3) [For vehicle with ABS]
Pull out primary piston assembly straight so as not to cause
any damage to inside o cylinder wall.
Pull out secondary piston assembly straight so as not to
cause any damage to inside of cylinder wall and by tapping
flange with a piece of wood or something soft.
4) [For vehicle without ABS]
Remove piston stopper bolt (1). Then remove secondary pis-
ton by blowing compressed air (2) into hole from which pis-
ton stopper bolt was removed.
Be cautions during removal as secondary piston jumps out.
INSPECTION
Inspect all disassembled parts for wear or damage, and
replace parts if necessary.
Inspect master cylinder bore for scoring or corrosion. It is
best to replace corroded cylinder.
Corrosion can be identified as pits or excessive roughness.
2. Master cylinder
NOTE:
Wash disassembled parts with brake fluid.
Do not reuse piston cups.
NOTE:
Polishing bore of master cylinder with cast aluminum
body with anything abrasive is prohibited, as damage to
cylinder bore may occur.
[A]: Vehicle equipped with ABS
[B]: Vehicle not equipped with ABS

Rinse cylinder in clean brake fluid. Shake excess rinsing
fluid from cylinder. Do not use a cloth to dry cylinder, as lint
from cloth cannot be kept from cylinder bore surfaces.
ASSEMBLY
1) Install secondary piston assembly into cylinder.
2) Install primary piston in cylinder.
3) Depress, and install circlip (2).
4) Install piston stopper bolt with pistons pushed in all the way
and tighten it to specified torque (For vehicle without ABS).
Tightening torque
Piston stopper bolt
(a) : 10 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 7.5 lb-ft)
Fill Reservoir
NOTE:
See NOTE at the beginning of this section.
Before assembling, wash each part in fluid recom-
mended to use for that vehicle.
1. Rod
CAUTION:
Do not use shock absorber fluid or any other fluid which
contains mineral oil. Do not use container which has
been used for mineral oil or which is wet from water. Min-
eral oil will cause swelling and distortion of rubber parts
in hydraulic brake system and water will mix with brake
fluid, lowering fluid boiling point. Keep all fluid contain-
ers capped to prevent contamination.

referring to following INSPECTION & ADJUSTMENT. CAUTION:
Brake fluid is extremely damaging to paint.
Do not allow brake fluid to get on painted surface.
LSPV assembly must not be disassembled.
Replace with new one if defective.
NOTE:
As shown in figure, LSPV assembly should be removed
together with its spring and stay installed as they are.
NOTE:
Make sure to bleed air from LSPV bleeder without fail.

CLEARANCE BETWEEN BOOSTER PISTON ROD AND
MASTER CYLINDER PISTON
The length of booster piston rod (1) is adjusted to provide speci-
fied clearance “a” between piston rod end and master cylinder
piston (2).
Before measuring clearance, push piston rod several times
so as to make sure reaction disc is in place.
Keep inside of booster at atmospheric pressure for measure-
ment.
Remove piston (push) rod seal from booster, if equipped.

For installation, make sure that steering wheel is in straightforward position and hose has no twist or kink.
Check to make sure that hose doesn’t contact any part of suspension, both in extreme right and extreme left
turn conditions. If it does at any point, remove and correct. Fill and maintain brake fluid level in reservoir.
Bleed brake system.
2) Perform brake test and check installed part for fluid leakage.
