The Brake Master Cylinder is a very important part of the brake system in Pontiac Firebird where it helps in translating the pressure exerted by the driver's foot to hydraulic pressure. It can be said that it uses hydraulic system where pistons located in a cast iron or aluminum body compress brake fluid and through slave cylinders it applies pressure to the brake pads on rotors or drums to stop the vehicle. Currently, all Pontiac Firebird models employ the dual circuit master cylinder which was introduced in 1967, this means that there are two pistons to help prevent an accident in the event of hydraulic failure. It can have an integrated reservoir or a nylon or plastic external reservoir and the latter is used more often. The differences between the two styles are mainly in the construction and the way it is attached to the reservoir which determines the ease of maintenance and possible leakages. In conclusion, the Brake Master Cylinder is crucial for the proper and secure functioning of the braking system of the Pontiac Firebird.
