Master cylinder warning switch leaking
I've got a leak through my master cylinder warning switch. My assumption is that simply replacing the switch will not cure the problem. My guess is that the proportioning valve "O" rings have failed. Am I correct?
If the master cylinder needs to be replaced, any good sources?

I ordered an oem master cylinder from ecklers. All the places in town wanted about $250! Ecklers was $120, at least for my year.

I recommend buying a new cylinder. I went through 2 rebuilts with leaking proportioning switches until I put a new master cylinder in. You may be right about the o rings.
