I have put 3 remanufactured MC in my 86 XJ in the last year and a half. Do the remanufactured MC have a reputation for this or is something else causing it?

did you bench bleed the master cylinder? also what brand are they? a1 cardone is the leading manufacturer and they rarely have defects on master cylinders. autozone, carquest, all pro, auto value, bumper to bumper all carry a1 cardone. they just put a house brand sticker on it.

My remanufactured one from Advanced Auto Parts last one and half years. It is my belief (sp) that they wear out quicker for some reason.
Check the o rings on the lines attaching to the MC, they need replacing or they aren't seated properly....didnt I just type this??!!
lol
But, ya, I got an auto zone special that lasted about a year...go NAPA or take the hit and get a MOPAR....those shoddy remmaned ones that Auto Zone gets are horrible

86 MC does not have o-rings on the lines. The early XJ MC used standard brake line fittings. Does this mean I just called SPOBI?

Fellers: Just replaced the Master and Slave on my 88 and the Master did not use O rings. The slave does on my internal slave.
