I should bloody read what i write before i post!!!!! :blush:

.7 or .75 cylinder is useless. Need a .625 one! Sorry for the confusion.

How do i find out what mine is? What difference does it make maby your onto something here
it should be stamped into the side of the cylinder. From what Ive seen, a lot of the cheap hydro 'kits' (cylinder,brackets and handle) have a .7 cylinder.

To be honest I reckon the cheap cylinders are just dirt, a proper cylinder (willwood, girling, obp) aren't that dear, around 50 quid or thereabouts I think.

A .625 has a smaller bore size………the smaller the bore the more pressure exerted in the lines.

A .7 has a bigger bore………. it'll move a bit more fluid but it won't exert the same pressure because its a bigger bore.

Make sense?
