A few days back, I posted about the rubber seal in the TR3 resevoir. I made a new one, and have out it all back together, but I didn't make a notation about which section of the resevoir was for the clutch and which one was for the brakes. Intuition says that the smaller section should be for the clutch, but sometimes intuition leads to the wrong conclusion.

So, which section services which master??

The center bore is the clutch surrounded by the larger master reservoir.

The smaller is for the clutch. I did the same thing on my 3 It lasted about 7 years before it started leak. I went ahead and got a new resevoir.
