Sierra master cyl pipe work.
Russ-Turner - 1/3/07 at 03:45 PM

Skodaman can't log in so I'm asking this on his behalf.
Can someone please explain what pipework attaches to what on the Sierra master cyl as there are three possible outlets, it's a three way split. He's using Cortina brakes and an English Axle combo.
Cheers.

It's usually one to each front brake (The front two) and one to the rear.

But I expect an expert will be along shortly

Cheers

No expert but picture may help, obviously side outlet to rear but wasn't connected at time of pic.

Top hole to Passenger side
Bottom hole to Drivers side

IIRC they need to be set like this as there is a slight bias to the drivers side.
