Greetings!
I have two questions as I am rebuilding my dual Master Cylinder for a '59 Bugeye.
1. There is a black washer that came with the kit that is about 1/8" thick with an outside diameter the same as the cylinder bore. I did not remove a similar object during the teardown. Does this washer go into the brake cylinder as the very first piece? When I disassembled the brake side, the last piece to come out was the spring that had the metal cup with a rubber insert.
2. Is it absolutely necessary to bench bleed the MC, or can I install it dry and get a good bleed using my pressure bleeder. If I must bench bleed, what size are the outlets? Can I just screw in some bleeder screws?
As always, thanks for any, and all advice.
John
