Re: Marina Brake Master Cyl

Hi Adrian
Is that £35 for a kit or a complete dual circuit cylinder?
My reason for asking is that I was led to believe that they were no longer available and also the reason I've got one sitting in my garage. [No longer have a roadster though!]

Re: Marina Brake Master Cyl

Alan, I have spoken to them but there are a number of questions they have as there are different types. They are not open tomorrow but give them a bell on Thursday and they reckon they could help you out, either with a kit or the whole item. Adrian

To reiterate,
I obtained a spare cylinder when I had the roadster as I was reliably informed that new items were no longer available from any source including Girling,and the only option if the cylinder was worn to a point that it would't take new seals was to have the unit resleeved. To have this done and the unit fitted with a new set of seals cost in the region of £120- hence when I had the opportunity to 'obtain' 2 good secondhand cylinders I snapped them up. One I sold on and the other I kept as a spare but never used and is now surplus to requirements.Obtaining a service kit was never a problem but getting a cylinder was or at least thats what I believed. This isn't the case with single circuit cylinders though unless someone wishes to correct that statement!

Re: Marina Brake Master Cyl

Sorry matey mis-understood but I am reliably informed that Speedyspares do have (albeit a small stock)some available. I have always found Speedyspares to have some of the hard to get parts as well as being cheap. I got a complete (including Track Rod Ends)new steering rack for £20 only a few weeks ago. If they don't show it on their web site always give them a bell as they might have it in stock. I know this info is of little use to you now but may be useful for other Roadster users.

Hi Adrian
Have orderdered a complete unit as Speedtspares did not have service kit! It was fortysomething quid tho as dual circuit servo type.
Alan where do you get service kits from please as I may as well build a spare!
