2008 Ford Fusion Brake Master Cylinder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the brake master cylinder for the 3.5L engine on 2008 Ford Fusion?

  A: Service operations on the 3.5L brake master cylinder need to start by taking the brake fluid reservoir out of the vehicle. A vehicle equipped with a manual transmission requires disconnecting and plugging the feed hose on the clutch master cylinder. The service process requires disconnecting brake tube fittings followed by plugging all associated tubes and ports prior to reinstall. The tube and port tightening torque must be set to 17 Nm (13 lb-ft). Fix the two brake master cylinder nuts with a torque value of 25 Nm (18 lb-ft) when installing the components. The master cylinder removal procedure should be executed backward to install the component while bleeding the system including both the master cylinders when applicable. The installation of brake fluid requiresatori-approved fluid that adheres to manufacturer specifications while separation of used fluid is necessary to stop contamination and component damage. Brake fluid should be kept away from painted or plastic materials since it causes harm; immediately wash away any fluid spills using water.
