I seem to have ruined 2 master cylinders today, as I cant bleed the brakes after fitting them, It seems difficult to get fluid out of all the bleed nipples, namely the passenger side front, I then took the brake pipe off from the master cylinder end and got my mate to push the pedal down - resulting in no brake fluid wanting to leave the master cylinder,
I've changed them before without problems but it seems like i'm overlooking something, any ideas????

What other master cylinders fit straight onto novas??

I always get the master cylinder and the servo mixed up - the servos the big black disc thing right?

I think you can use an astra one - I know peeps that use cavvy ones (bigger disc conversions) and the Nova GTE servo is bigger...

As for the master cylinder - unsure - could there be a blockage?

Sorry m8 - I'd take it to a brake specialist - you dont wanna shag yer brakes in the winter!
