    Master Cylinder - Relief Hole

    Rebuilding the front m/c on my GS550EF. Question about the small relief hole inside the m/c. Looks like mine is plugged, can't see if there is a hole there. I have a box of dental drill bits but what size is the hole?

    The hole size is "small". I've never seen a spec for the actual dimension.

      I use a clipped guitar string end or a pin to clean mine.

        Cleaned it out with a small dental bit, m/c works great now. Thanks all.

            Glad you were able to fix it easily; I had to have mine redrilled because nothing would fit through it no matter how small of a wire I pushed through.
