need some help, basiclly i fitted 300mm discs/mk3 mondeo calipers all new/refurbed and the bastard wont bleed up. i inspected the m/c were it bolts up to the servo and noticed it was leaking. my question is will the 23 id m/c be upto the job of the big calipers and if not is there a readily available bolt on replacement? i have a mk5 servo/mc that i was kindly given however, its a faff to fit so im looking for the easier option.

iirc mine has a 23 m/c it copes fine with cossie 4x4 front calipers

cheers mate, and is the 23 id one readily available at motorfactors? i know the 25's are a bugger to get hold of.

Do you need a 2 or 4 outlet cylinder?

I've got 1 in the garage, I purchased it for the resovoir but didn't need it in the end.

right ive sourced a m/c. prob is i have a choice of 2. 23mm id or a 28mm. i know the 23 will work ok with mk3 modeo calipers but would the 28mm be better or overkill as im still using rear drums. thanks for the input
