Turn brake-pedal force into the hydraulic pressure your brakes rely on with the Dorman - First Stop Brake Master Cylinder M390514. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2003 Ford Escort and the 1997-1999 Mercury Tracer, taking over the hydraulic link between the pedal and the brake circuits.
If a worn or leaking master cylinder is the cause of your soft or fading pedal, this unit replaces it. Bench-bleed the cylinder and bleed the system per the vehicle service procedure after installation to remove trapped air.
