7. Test drive the vehicle to verify the brakes are operating properly and pedal feel is correct.
Master Cylinder - LHD
Description
The master cylinder body is an anodized aluminum casting. It is located at the left side of the engine room. It has a
machined bore to accept the master cylinder pistons and also has threaded ports with seats for hydraulic brake tube
connections. The master cylinder has the brake fluid reservoir mounted on top of it and supplies brake fluid to the
master cylinder as required. On manual transaxle equipped vehicles, the brake fluid reservoir also feeds the clutch
hydraulic circuit. The reservoir is made of clear plastic and it houses the brake fluid level switch.
Operation
When the brake pedal is pressed, the master cylinder pistons apply brake pressure through the chassis brake tubes
to each brake assembly. The brake fluid reservoir supplies the brake hydraulic system with the necessary fluid to
operate properly.
Removal & Installation
CAUTION:
The vacuum in the power brake booster must be pumped down before removing the master cyl-
inder to avoid damaging the master cylinder and to prevent the booster from sucking in any con-
tamination. This can be done by pumping the brake pedal while the engine is not running until a
firm brake pedal is achieved.
1. Turn the ignition switch off.
2. Siphon out as much brake fluid as possible from the master cylinder.
3. With the engine off, pump the brake pedal 4-5 strokes until the pedal feel is firm.
4. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
5. Disconnect the brake fluid level switch electrical connector in the master cylinder brake fluid reservoir.
6. Disconnect the brake tubes (1) at the master cylin- der outlet ports. Install plugs at all of the open
brake tube outlets on the master cylinder.
(Tighten: Brake tube nuts to 10 N·m)

Power Brake Booster - LHD
Description
The power brake booster is mounted in the engine compartment on the left side of the dash panel. The master
cylinder is bolted to the front of the booster.
Operation
A vacuum line connects the check valve to engine source vacuum. The booster input rod extends through the dash
panel and connects to the brake pedal.

inder to avoid damaging the master cylinder and to prevent the booster from sucking in any con-
tamination. This can be done by pumping the brake pedal while the engine is not running until a

Description
The calipers are a single piston type. The calipers are free to slide laterally on the anchor, this allows continuous
compensation for lining wear. The calipers are directly bolted to the wheel hub with mounting bolts. The brake rotor
dust shield is mounted to the hub.
Operation
When the brakes are applied, fluid pressure is exerted against the caliper piston. The fluid pressure is exerted
equally and in all directions. This means pressure exerted against the caliper piston and within the caliper bores will
be equal. Fluid pressure applied to the pistons is transmitted directly to the inboard brake pad. This forces the pad
