9. XJS Master Cylinder hoses connected to the brake fluid reserviour
Jaguar Parts Technical Information part 2
On most XJS cars, there are four small rubber hoses connecting the master
cylinder to the brake fluid reservoir. These get brittle, crack and leak
brake fluid everywhere (watch your paint)! You cannot use regular fuel
line or other rubber hose to replace them. You must use a hose designed
for brake fluid use. They don't get any pressure, but the brake fluid will
eat any regular hose you put on. We sell the set of hoses, one is curved,
one is straight. You cut the straight one into three pieces to fit your
application.
Remember, brake fluid is a good paint remover, so dont let it get on your painted surfaces!
