You should be able to get a small amount of red rubber grease at your local Autozone or a good hardware store for 5 bucks or so. It sometimes comes as brake cylinder assembly grease. In fact, if you get chummy with your autoparts guy, he/she might snag you one of the little packets that come with master cylinder rebuild kitsI was just looking at the housing a few minutes ago. I see the elongated oval going up to the chamber. Some one mentioned the choke being off to accurately determine drop time. Anyway, it’s now longer than before. I guess I’ll get the red rubber grease off Amazon. I don’t like them much. They kind of did in book publishers
