[Mgs] Moss Motors clutch master cylinder brake fluid

[Robert's New iPad]

	These work OK. I have one.  There is not any extra fluid capacity in them, according to a recent article in MG Driver, so bleeding the line absolutely bubble-free is necessary. 
	They also fit several GM trucks.

One problem I had with it was that it was hard to get its cap off without first removing the cap on the brake master cylinder. The new cylinder from Moss appears that it won't have that issue. It's this one under 180-697: https://mossmotors.com/180-697-clutch-master-cylinder-replacement-3-4-bore

The brake master I installed (https://mossmotors.com/180-767-brake-master-cylinder-aftermarket) is an aftermarket replacement from Moss, and it's labeled as DOT 3 compliant. I'm under the impression that most parts sold in the US are supposed to be that way, and have also been told that these new cylinders use a synthetic rubber that the old original cylinders didn't have, so the fluid is less mission critical and shouldn't cause the rubber parts to deteriorate.
