get rid its a crap system and actually makes your brakes worse, plus you will find most have had the belts that run it removed anyway !

I'm removing mine over the next few weeks, I've got myself a non abs resovior and a roll of pipe. Any tips on removing the resovior from the master cyclinder or do I just need the strength of 3 men.
