Hi all,
I have search'd around for info and such on my Ponti brake system and haven't found alot so I decided to document a bit of what im doing on here so it may help others.
So to start off I have taken off my Master Cylinder and Brake Booster...
I took them to a local brake repairer to see what he would say is best way to go about things.
He stated that repairing tha old one would be 100% better than purchasing a new one...
(estimates)
$220 to re-selve master cylinder
$350 to do repairs to booster (seems fluid has enter'd it)
**********
$200 Metal Finish (chrome plating)
Now....
I can purchase a metal finished (chromed) master cylinder - brake booster combo from tha net for round $200-$300
But...
In buying a new one I may have tha headache of bolt holes not lining up, wrong bore size and tha geneal worry of it not working as well as and original one built for tha car.
So at present I am debating these two options...
Pay round 3 times as much for peace of mind or take tha cheap gamble.
Brakes are pretty dam important hahaha so im leaning towards paying tha repairs rather than buying new... still thinking.
