Thanks guys, wrt to rebuilding the cylinder, is there a method to removing 
the nylon spacer in the nose of the master cylinder without having to 
distroy it?

Hi Al

I think what you're missing is the white plastic cover for the air valve. I
think I have a spare cover if you need it, but I'm not sure what else might
be missing without a picture fo what you have.

It's probably more economical to rebuild what you have if you can; a new
E-type cylinder will cost you about $700-800, but will include the air valve
assembly. I'm pretty certain you need the master for a series II E-type if
you decide to go this way

All

I'm about to pull the master cylinder out on my 1970 P6 3500S. The master
cylinder appears to have a cover missing on the top where there's a spring
exposed. What is this for and can I get a replacement cover.

Also, I'm under the impression that these master cylinders are the same as
certain Jaguar ones. Is this true?

I would like to evaluate whether they are worth rebuilding or replacing if a

Jag part is available.

Many thanks.

Al
