What is a master cylinder and what it does on a car …anyone can ans.?
“The master cylinder is a hydraulic control device that converts physical pressure (commonly from a driver’s foot) into hydraulic pressure to operate other device(s) in the hydraulic system. The most common automotive uses of master cylinders are in brake and clutch systems. The operated device in the clutch system is called the slave cylinder. In brake systems, the operated devices are brake calipers and/or wheel cylinders.” Source and further information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_cylinder Further information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake http://en.wikipedia.
