Default Quick master cylinder question (well two)

Sorry if this is obvious, but the serach is down and I'm curious.

which port on my MC is for the front brakes and which is for the rears?



Also, any clue what size came stock on a CRX DX? I took off one marked 15/16 and put on a 7/8(autozone replacement). Was wondering what the stock size was.

Thanks.

They are not front and rear, but diagonal systems, like left front and right rear.

I think the dx had a 13/16 mc. Do you have rear discs?

Another picture:

Top one is the one that came off. Bottom is what autozone called the stock replacement.

SO if I understand everything right,

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by drdisco69 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">They are not front and rear, but diagonal systems, like left front and right rear.</TD></TR></TABLE>

which is odd.

and the stock DX size was 13/16.

Not odd, required. Every car since (insert a long time ago here) has a diagonally split braking system. Imagine the fun of losing front brakes in the snow on the highway at night.
