Seriously, if you suspect the master cylinder, get a rebuild kit or get it rebuilt - only get a second hand unit if you need to stay mobile whilst the old one is getting rebuilt. Is really dangerous fitting second hand master cylinders & wheel cylinders unless you rebuild them first - any good shop mechanic will tell you that.
remans available or new if you prefer.
