Drew P asked:


I have a 1989 Volvo 760 Turbo. I am having a hard time finding a repair manual to show me how to replace my master cylinder for my brakes. Anybody got a site or at least some pointers on how to replace the master cylinder? I’ve already bled the brakes correctly and have diagnost the problem correctly.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Troy

      Honestly, if you’ve got to ask, then you shouldnt be doing them. Remember, its your BRAKES. When those are done wrong accidents happen. Dont let that be you. Take it to a shop.
