Advice on fitting new brake reservoir on 280SL
« on: December 02, 2015, 19:00:05 »
Hi, I have removed my exisiting brake resertvoir and am ready to fit a new one.  To remove the old one I gently prised it out of the master cylinder. Do I just alighn the tow spigots on the new one and puch down into the rubber bushes on the top of the master cylinder to refit?

Yes, wet the rubbers with brake fluid to ease the process.
