Q & A: Rebuilding MC for Midget

Tuesday January 03rd, 2006
Q & A, MGA, MGB, MGC, MG T-Type, Midget
As I am rebuilding the brake master cylinder on my 74 Midget -a new one
costs over $200 and a rebuild kit is $20- I find I cannot remove the snap
ring holding the piston due to how far it is in the cylinder and any
normal pair of pliers do not have tips long enough to reach it. According
to the workshop manual there is a specific tool #18G1112 to reach this
clip. Do you have any idea where I might find one of these?

Thank you for your time,
Paul
Paul!

You are attempting one of the most difficult rebuilds! Make
certain that you do not scratch the bore or the piston. Cleanliness and
polish is CRITICAL.
