2012 04 09 Well, after 4 weeks and buckets of DOT5 spent trying to make the Jaymar master cylinders work I have given up. They are just crap. So I'm taking the base of their base and building a new brake master setup using MATCO MC-4A master cylinders.

Next request was for a compression check. 80/80, 80/80, 80/80, 79/80. No problem there. But while doing this I decided to check the plugs. Cylinder #3 plugs looked different. WHY?

And the float bowl back in place, with no gasket sticking out anywhere. Then it was torqued down and safety wired. Both drip trays were then re-installed. Lastly, I ran the electric fuel pump for several minutes (at 6 PSI according to the gage) and che

Remove the Billet pump from the circuit. Run with only electric pump. Input line connected directly to the regulator. At the same time, remove airbox pressure from differential gauge to get absolute fuel pressure out of regulator.

Mounted the gage and turned on the electric fuel pump. Bingo! A pressure reading. It works now. So now I have a good operating differential pressure gage.

2010 11 12 Was a total waste of a day. After arriving at the hanger, I went in to open the hanger door. When the hanger door had been opened I was greeted by the sight of a drooping rear bumper on the Ranger. Went to the droopy side and found this. R

Assembled everything. You can see the spacers fit to hold the master cylinders in alignment. Plumbing in place. The unit is about 1 1/2 in. taller than the old Jaymar. I'm wondering if it will fit or will I have to lower it in the mount? We'll see to

The issue being the softness and flexibility of the gasket material. Makes it difficult to ensure proper location while reattaching the bowl. The gasket is probably fine for a carb rebuild where you are doing it on the bench and can turn the carb over f

As an aside, while trouble shooting this problem, I decided to try and get the differential pressure gage working. Spent quite a bit of time on this over a year ago but could never get it to work. Anyway, I reinstalled the differential sensor unit and p

New brake master cylinder set, installed and viewed from the tunnel. Brakes have been bled and seem to work well. Taxi testing will tell just how well they work.

Then I removed all the cheep crap connectors (with folded sheet metal pins) provided with the gage package, re-ran all the wiring and replaced the cheep connectors with good, 9-pin, sub-D connectors.
