Rebuild everything and replace all rubber parts in all wheel cylinders,
calipers, proportioning valve, and MC, and replace flex hoses. Flush all
tubing with alcohol and dry with compressed air. Just rebuilding the MC is
not enough. Fill with Castrol GT LMA or equivilant DOT 4 fluid, NOT DOT 3.
Bleed, and bleed, and bleed.
It sounds like a lot, but it's good practice! :-)
