Default Master cylinder

Over the winter the master cylinder leaked the fluid in the rear part of the reservoir due to the extreme cold. You can see where it ran down the front of the booster. Will the seal swell up and hold now that it`s warm, or should I replace the cylinder. Might even be able to find a re-seal kit, haven`t looked very hard. Thanks.

Good luck finding a rebuild kit for the master these days, they are phasing them out it seems. Haven’t been able to get one for my GTO for a few years.
No, it’s not leaking from being cold, it needs to be replaced. )or rebuilt if you’re that lucky to find a kit)
