Re: What causes brake fluid to move from rear to front reservoir?

If you need to get a master cylinder, save yourself a lot of hassle and get a new one, not a rebuilt/remanufactured one. The last time I did a master cylinder I went through three or four remanufactured ones from NAPA that all leaked. Luckily they leaked when I was bench-bleeding them so I didn't get into a lot of work installing and removing them. Took the last one back and got a brand new one - worked like a champ. It costs about twice as much, but its worth it to avoid this problem. I've had it happen on two different vehicles.
