Help, need advise on removing pushrod
 
I need help / advise on how to remove the pushrod on a 66 mustang brake master cylinder. The push rod in held in place by a retaining clip inside the bore about 1/2 to 1 inch inside the bore where the pushrod sits. on he newer master cylinder, you just give it a hard yank and it comes out but this does not work for this one, any advise would be helpful..i was thinking about just getting a newer model master cylinder and just go to home deport and get a rod and cut to size or go to a junk yard...Thanks

If it's the one I'm thinking of it has a star retainer holding it in? If so use a hook pick to work it out. If not then never mind,,,,,,,,,,

If it the same as the one on my old Ford pick up, you need a pair of snap ring pliers. These will help get the snap ring in and out. Should be pretty cheap, under $10.

i looked down in it and it appears to be just a round snap ring, i tried to get to it with one of those snap ring pliers but there is not enough room to get the tool down there.
