i know all the "replacement" masters that are in the booster less "kits" wilwood only recommends to be ran on 2 wheels, and not all 4

you may want to call them and ask if the one you have is idea for your setup

Wilwoods have a tendency to.do this.if you don't bleed the.unit.properly I would rebleed the.unit.and make.sure the cap for the res is tight.and sealed. The masters they sell ate not open normally like oem ones. It uses a LIL vaccum pressure to re fill the master under pedal pressure. Next time before the pass pump the pedal a couple times to insure there is.pressure.
