Re: 83 Winnebago Chieftain finding brake fluid reservoir by Robert
Post New Message We have a 85 Winnebago Elandan built on a Chevy P-30 Chasis. I found the brake master cylinder located on the left side of the vehicle right next to and above the left front tire. It is located behind and is protected by a large steel plate, but the m/c cover is accessible through a large rectangular cut-out in the steel plate. If yours is the same, it might be helpful to turn your left front wheel inwards (as if you're making a right turn) which will give you better access to the brake cylinder. Joe's right. When I'd opened mine, the top edge was all crusted over. It looked as if it hasn't been serviced for 15 years. The back retainer strap was missing, the front chamber was empty, and the rear was only a third full. I'm surprised the truck had any pedal at all, let alone stopped. But hey, after all it's a Chevrolet.
