Has anyone got a view of the seals on the Brake master cylinder piston?

or a schematic of them.. anything will do.
There's a fella in Islamabad Pakistan who is desperate for help.

Quote:
When the master cylinder was taken out and disassembled by the parts shop guy (who is a vw veteran) he said that the seals have been installed in the wrong order previously (by my mechanic). And then he installed the new seals in and kinda struggled and got confused with the order of the last seals towards the circlip lock.

So I'm not sure if he did it the right was or not? Does some one have an exploded diagram/picture of a disassembled master cylinder? Any pictures on any website?

Will really appreciate the help!


It's an '81 Vanagon.
