Rebuilding clutch master cylinder questions

[Spathodus77]

Hi all,

I've got the clutch master cylinder off the car and the good news is that the piston is absolutely mint with no scoring...so I'm thinking that I'll rebuild it with a new seal kit. The problem is that there are two seal kit options listed on the moss website, one is for cylinders with a 0.70in bore and one is for cylinders with a 0.75in bore. My master cylinder has 'Girling 70' on the side, does anyone know if this means that it is 0.70in bore? My second question is how do I separate the spring from the piston?

Thanks,

Ralph

Yes it's .70

Thanks, I'll give power track a ring on Mon and see if they know how to separate the spring from the piston - I want to make sure I can get it apart without breaking it before I order a seal kit/whole new cylinder.
