totty79 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Make sure it's clean, and rotate the grommet a few times so it gets seated properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel2607 Posted December 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 OK will give it a clean and try spinning it is it right to just push the pin through the grommet and then put the spring on the other side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overdale Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 The master cylinders on the Beta are Grimeca, so if you got pins and rubbers meant for another make of master cylinder, the rubbers may have a different diameter and not locate in the undercut. Also some of the pins are 2mm longer and cause problems trying to adjust the clutch or brake as you can't screw them out far enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel2607 Posted December 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 The advert I bought from says what I bought was for ajp and grimeca master cylinders so I thought must be OK maybe not will compare with old ones tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel2607 Posted December 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 The pins are both the same length 22mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyt Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Diesel With all else being equal, the reason they are popping out is due to a vacuum being created by the movement of the pin through the rubber boots. Put plenty of Armor All on the rubber boots and be patient they will loosen up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
