Re: [alfa] 164 Brake master cylinder

[Bernie Bennett <bennetts77833@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The LS Master Cylinder comes as a unit with the power booster. $$$$. 
Alfa Repair manual/Car disk says it "can not be renewed."

Don't know if the connector can be repaired; but pray that it can be. 
The picture in the car disk shows a pressure fit into rubber plugs in 
the MC.
If the plugs are deteriorating new ones should solve your problem. Sorry 
I don't have a parts manual to see if new ones are available.

Best Wishes,
