What is the function of a master cylinder compensating port?

Type your answer here... Correct Answer: Allow for the normal expansion and contraction of brake fluid due to temperature changes


What does the compensating port do in the brake cylinder?

the master cylinder is designed so that when the brakes are applied, the pistons (primary and secondary) closes the compensating port and opens intake port. this allows brake pressure to be formed in brake system to apply brakes and allows brake fluid to fill behind pistons (through intake ports) when you release the brakes, the primary and secondary piston springs push their pistons (inside the master cylinder) to its rest position, faster than fluid can fill the chambers. this causes the brake fluid to flow past the piston cups (this happens when the rubber cup flexes foward) as the pistons pass the compensating port, brake fluid is allowed to return to the master cylinder reservoir. the intake and compensating ports act as a breather for the master cylinder. hope this answers your queston :)


What is a fast fill valve in a master cylinder?

A fast-fill valve in a master cylinder acts as the inlet port and the compensating port. fitted between the reservoir and the cylinder bore. It is a combination valve with a ball and a pressure seal. Depending on the pressure, it allows flid to flow from the large bore of the cylinder to the reservoir, or from the reservoir into the large bore.

On a 93 ford tempo master brake cylinder are the front brakes controlled by the lines on the bottem of the master brake cylinder or the sides?

. If you have the 4-port master cylinder, the bottom ports go to the rear brakes & the upper side ports go to the front brakes.


How do you bleed a 4 port master cylinder?

If a pressure type brake fluid dispenser is available attach it to the top of the master cylinder. Other wise fill the master cylinder, start with the wheel cylinder that is furthermost from the master, and bleed until fluid comes out clean and free from bubbles. make sure to replenish the the master cylinder as needed. then proceed to the next farther wheel cylinder and repeat with the rest of the wheel cylinders. top off the master cylinder. Test with the engine off then with the engine running before driving.

Bench bleed a 4 port master brake cylinder on a 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo?

To bench bleed a 4-port master brake cylinder on a 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo, first secure the cylinder in a vise with its ports facing up. Fill the cylinder with brake fluid, then insert the supplied plastic tubes into the ports and submerge the other ends in the fluid. Pump the piston slowly until no air bubbles are visible in the fluid, ensuring that fluid circulates through the tubes. Once complete, remove the tubes, cap the ports, and install the master cylinder back onto the vehicle.


Where do the rear brake lines connect to the master brake cylinder?

The rear brake lines connect to the master brake cylinder at designated ports, typically located on the side or rear of the cylinder. In a typical brake system, there's often a specific port for the rear brakes, which allows hydraulic fluid to flow from the master cylinder to the rear brake components. The exact configuration can vary depending on the vehicle's make and model. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for precise details and diagrams.
