Default Re: Copper washers for master cylinder and power booster fittings

Well I was able to find some Dorman washers that fit snugly over the shoulder. These had a larger O.D. than the original and were a little thicker. For anyone interested, the part number is 097-829CD, and are described as M12 • 1/2” (1.3 cm) S.O.

That said, I still have leaks. I inspected the body of the new master cylinder and it was smooth and looked good. I’m not too sure about the brass fitting so will order one of those. The top of the body of the power booster looked pitted and suspect (see picture). Should that have been cleaned up by the rebuilder? I will also check the booster body where the brass fitting for the hardline to the M/C connects to see if it has a similar problem. I will order a new fitting for there as well.

Is there anything else I can do to eliminate these leaks? It’s the last thing I need to actually drive this thing on the street so I can take it to align the front suspension.
