[Tigers] Brake Pedal

                I could not find a Lucas diagram of the master brake
cylinder, I did find one for the clutch master which is similar.

It does show the circlip after the washer.

 

I see there are some YouTube videos of rebuilds but don't know how
informative they are.

Using the same picture here is the disk I was talking about.  If the rubber
is not completely trashed, I do not think the plunger would have pulled past
the rubber.  That suggests the hole in the disk or the knob at the end of
the plunger were some how compromised, not the circlip.  Now granted, I
think it is more likely that the circlip was put in poorly.  But in that
situation, the plunger would still pull the disk, which would have pulled
the rubber boot off the MC.

Thank you all.  I will check the circle, circlip, tomorrow.

Joel,

Your master cylinder was apparently assembled without the circlip.  See #2
in the attached from the workshop manual.

I had a little scare the other day backing out of the DMV parking lot.  No
Brakes.  Discovered that the brake plunger had come out of the rubber sleeve
going into the master cylinder.

 

The only thing that could have happened is when I got out, my foot pulled
the pedal back towards the interior and this pulled the plunger out.

 

It only had the spring, plunger and rubber plug to hold the plunger into the
master cylinder.

 

Is there suppose to be something else to hold the plunger in place?

 

Thanks
