Paul said his was the later Mk2 Fiesta donor so that is the short stubby
pressed steel master cylinder.
There is no alternative for this without changing the servo and brackets
as well.
The Mk3 (and probably the Mk4) Fiesta master cylinders can be used to
replace the early Mk2 Fiesta cast iron cylinders, I've done that myself.
But the holes are at a different angle completely on the later Mk2 Fiesta.
They are also often thrown away i think as the brake fluid attacks the
paint on them (good thinking that Ford) and they get very rusty on the
outside.

*Subject:* [Quantum Owners] 2+2 XR2 Brake Master Cylinder &
Servo...HELP!
Hi all, my 2+2 has just failed it's MOT due to a spongy brake
pedal, after some investigation it appears the master cylinder
seals are shot & as such is filling the servo up with brake fluid.
I have searched virtually everywhere for a service kit but have
been told that these are now extinct for the later (1988 > 1989)
XR2 so my car is now sitting at my mechanics in bits whilst alot
of head scrathing is taking place.
Someone told me that a non ABS Mondeo set up could be used
although considerable work is required to fit this & the bar
running along the bulk head needs to be made adjustable to enable
the brake pedal to be adjusted but this seems to be more work than
I'm willing to investigate further, has anyone else had this
problem with a late XR2 based Quantum & if so how did you overcome
this or does anyone know where a service kit could be obtained
from or does another service kit from a different manufacturer fit?
Seems totally crazy that such a simple part from an 80's Ford
cannot be obtained & makes me wonder how both MK2 XR2 owners & kit
car owners are keeping their cars on the road if such simple
service parts are no longer available?
Any help with this will be very, very much appreciated.
Cheers, Paul.
