Hi all, after replacing both clutch cylinders last year due to weeping / corrosion, noticed a few drips on the garage floor from the master brake cylinder at the weekend. It's got a slight weep from where the cylinder connects to the servo.
Couple of questions as i've never replaced this item before.
1) What cylinder do i need to order and where from? (do i need a new plastic reservoir too)
2) Is there a walk through anywhere (have looked online) on how to do the job?
3) How easy is the job on the pistonheads scale 1-10?

Picture of said set up ..... i think it's the fiesta set-up? and yes i know it's upside down,
so no comments smart arses!

Didn't know there was one Tim?
Is that a seperate item because it dosen't look like it comes with the cylinders I've looked at?
