Looks like your master brake cylinder needs a rebuild. If you do it your
self, make sure to get the nines article on rebuilding sonett mc(issue #238). Its a very good article by Burce Turk. It should take you a
day(4-6 hours) if you've never done one.
Parts you'll need:
1)Rebuild kit from SAAB (do not buy from any other source as they all are
missing parts (I've done this before))
2)brake mc hone (and drill)
read the article and be patience especially during dissasembly. You
don't want to scratch or damage the piston or bore.
Also, do not hone the piston very much, just enough to smoothen the bore.
If you have any question,email me.
If your mc is badly pitted or damaged(scratches) then send it to Bud Clark
at J&B imports(Orange,Ca)
