id use it in the clutch, rather than the brake. mine is a TR3.
how did you hone them?

Subject: [TR] master cylinder fix

I had posted to the list concerning rebuild kits I'd installed in tr-3 (gir=
ling) =


master cylinders which had been so tight they stuck when pushed in.=A0 =


I decided to simply buy new master cylinders but then thought if I was goin=
g to =

pitch the old ones, might as well fiddle with them more and see what happen=
s.=A0 =

One of them was looser than the other so I started there and honed a little=
 more =


and it worked much better.=A0 The other one took lots more honing but event=
ually =

it also now works well.=A0 I'm going to use them and watch them carefully.=
=A0 The =

only concern I have is that I might have honed too much (or didn't get the =

inside honed evenly) which might result in earlier failure.=A0 Wondering if=
 anyone =


on the list has done this or has a warning for me concerning the fix.
Just thought it might be helpful to share what I tried.
