Master Cylinder Feed Spigots
So, i have decided to upgrade the sierra master cylinder to a Fiat one, and have gone for the Panda one as it has 10x1 threads and not 1.25 so should
make things a bit more simple.
However this doesnt come with the plastic spigot things that the reservoir feed hose attach.,to as seen in the pic in the link below.

Question is can I get these anywhere, or is ther an alternative, they will be feeding from some remote single pot reservoirs?
All help and cosnidered.
Many thanks
Regards Chris

Can't help with the bits you need chap, but interested if you get a reply as I have just replaced my Sierra MC with one for a Fiat 127. Wish
I'd known about the thread difference before I got it though! (M10 x 1.25 instead of M10 x 1) Just had to buy more unions and bleed screw

Be interested to see any pics of the finished result too  . I've yet to work out where I'm going to fit my reservoir (it's similar
to the Sierra one but with spigots for tubing)

Have you tried the likes of Brakes international?
When I bought the Fiat 124 MC from them and realised that the thread for the unions was differnt I rang them up and they sent me some 10x1.25 ones
FOC.

Just a quick Q? Why are you all replacing the Sierra one for a Fiat job? Am I missing something?

Smaller bore = more pedal travel = better brake feeling/control

Replacing mine because the old one dumped it's contents out of the pedal rod end! I replaced the seals but somehow do not trust it anymore,
there is the tiniest of scores around that end of the bore so....., and we are talking brakes after all!
Plus, for the reason above too

Changing the end fittings of the pipe is no big deal,especially if you have a decent on car pipe flaring tool. Alternatively you can get short
pipes made up as thread adaptors.
Brakes international istr the part number for the 124 is BMC4020 but check with them by phone/email it includes the spigots.
There are other suitable Fiat M/Cs I thing the one for the 128 BMC4019 or 126 BMC4018
The smaller bore is just to reduce pedal effort.

Thank you all, I will give brakes international a little tap then, see if i can get some, failing that i will be calling our very kind friend above in
Poland to send me some across.
In terms of why - all teh reasons above really. I am after better feel and think the seals are going in mine as well, so two birds with one stone and
all that.
Cheers all.

yes that's the plan, it is the usual sierra M/C replacement going on among other winter mods for the garage cash cow.
It's those white connectors on the master cylinder i am looking for
Big thank-you for the archive picture, excellent work.
