Master Cylinder Replacement ?'s
All,
In the process of replacing my master cylinder.
I couldn't get the clip on the master/slave connection and dropped the clip in the frame in the process of trying to do this. So frustrated, this is such a poor design (not just reading about all the issues with this part).
Two questions -
Where can I get this clip? Dealer wants me to buy the whole slave to get this one small clip off the connector.
Can I omit the connection and just run a direct line without these pieces? Do they serve any function? I don't see any sensors connected to them.
Thanks,
Matt

Stock masters are fine. There was a revised design a couple of years ago. IIRC, they aren’t crazy expensive. If you don’t have the latest design, you might as well replace the whole thing.
