positive report on Gtclassiche.com
All, recently dealt with GTclassiche.com. a division of AFRA, in Italy , purchasing several parts form my 330. They also deal with lambo, maserati, detomaso, and have a decent website for ordering. While communication and processing is done in the classic italian manner, it was done. and it was done...

Re: 330GT Master cylinder repair Rear seal
Follow up to my posts on the rear seal of my MC leaking. I sourced rebuild kits from 3 vendors ( because i destroyed 2 seals along the way). GT parts, Rutlands and finally Karps--- they all sell the same kit essentially, and while the 3 piston seals (7/8") are fine, the rear seal ( PN#7 in diagram) ...

Booster Vacuum Check Valve with Service port
As part of my Brake Master cylinder rebuild, and Booster, decided to find a suitable new vacuum port. Most are one port, ours had a service port. see attached. The exact part (but painted black) with a service port, and new gasket is about 11$. If yours was like my original, its brittle, and it had ...

330GT brake fluid reservoir loss - Master Rebuild
UPDATE: 1) got the 3 seals from T rutlands- fit great. pieces after cleaning look great. 2) Tom reminded me to make sure the Banjo bolt for rear brakes (labelled A) fits into the slot in the rear piston (labelled B)-- YOU MUST ALIGN the rear cylinder with slot pointing up as you assemble the pieces ...

Re: 330GT brake fluid reservoir loss
Guys, whats the correct finish for the Master cylinder ( for my late 330 GT SII, CAD plated booster)-- On Kerry's site there are examples of black painted and unfinished appearing ones.. Now that I have everything cleaned up, I might as well do it correctly. Same for the bracket holding the reservoi...

Re: 330GT brake fluid reservoir loss
sunday night.. steelers on TV... my team, but couldn't resist : removed it. you can see gunk all over that flange where it should be dry. i think this seal is probably just plain worn out. cleaning everything and need to source some seals. barrel looks fine. managed to lose the snap ring when it fle...

Re: SOLVED -330GT brake fluid reservoir loss
Tom and Steve, Y'all a bunch of smart people. pulled the vacuum port from the booster, and ran a red cloth strip down.. came up soaked. inserted my suction tool and brought up a "reservoir" of brake fluid out of the booster. Many thanks--- time to pull the MC and rebuild I guess!' michael IMG_3349.j...

Re: 330GT brake fluid reservoir loss
so is it a seal at the rear of the Master that could be bad?
not sure I have ever seen a rebuild kit --- do I just take it apart and find seals that fit?

Re: 330GT brake fluid reservoir loss
sorry... it actually went dry. I hadn't checked fluid levels in a while, and the pedal felt squishy so when I checked, it was empty. The only thing I haven't done is have someone push on the pedal, with car running, while I am underneath, and after I replace the blue hoses, I will do that.

330GT brake fluid reservoir loss
In the several years I have owned #9693 I have had to fill the Brake fluid reservoir on 2 occasions. Each time I have done a VERY thorough search and find no leaks. not at the reservoir, the MC, the calipers, the front rubber hoses, or at the Brake light T junction split, or at any junction. That sa...
