I posted a topic a short while back about my brake master cykinder speculating as to why it was leaky/empty. Well as pointed out I was totally off base about the brake servo sucking fluid out, so lets forget I ever said it.
I ordered a rebuild kit because I figured the BMC was only about 8 years old with limited hobby car mileage.
Being not overly bright this week I took the MC apart, rebuilt it, then cleaned and inspected the bores, little line of pitting or corrosion right at the bottom of the circle of the bore.
I have been a proponent of DOT 5 and will still use it, but turns out it is lighter than water, so it doesn't absorb it and water pools at the bottom of things, hence my problem, guess I need to flush it out more often.
