I looked in the 1960 Shop manual on page 11-5 for help rebuilding the master. I noticed the brake side used all the parts where the clutch did not use the end rubber ring behind the return spring, nor does it use the return spring end.
Is this right?

I am still troubleshooting my issue and want to eliminate this as a possibility.
Thanks.. Russ

That is the name of it... a check valve.
When I rebuilt the MC, both the cluth and brake had one installed. I wonder if that causes any problems. I bench bled the MC and now have to bleed it on the truck. Then I will know if I fixed my clutch problem.
Thanks.. Russ
