Master cylinder is apart!! I decided to drill and tap the piston (#3) so I could use a bolt as a puller. As I was threading the hole the piston started to spin. A little upward force on the tap and the secondary piston (#3) came out. The primary (#2) was a little bit of a pain. I ended up stuffing a paper towel in the reservoir opening and my finger over the piston retaining bolt hole (#5 is the bolt, hole between the outputs). Applied a little too much air pressure and bang, something launches across the garage. My hands were occupied blocking the holes and I told myself it didn't matter if I lost it. Now that its missing I really want to find it .



A little something showed up in the mail today as well...

I only scanned the pages I want some opinions about. What would be the best way to upload the manual? Not necessarily on Ecomodder, but where I can link to. I scanned it in as a pdf, but I have some other options too. I probably won't scan the whole thing in one sitting. So either upload sections or I could just wait until I scan all the pages and upload at once.

So the chilton says to remove the knuckle. On the first page it says I can remove with a slide hammer. Thoughts? I was hoping to not mess with the suspension yet so I think I'd rather use the slide hammer to pull the hub. If I can get the knuckle off easily though I think I risk less damage and where the car is parked right now getting the slide hammer on might be a little difficult.
