I am thinking that once you tear into it, you will find that the cylinder bores are pitted. The tolerances are close enough on these units, and master cylinders also, that you cannot hone the cylinders until they are clean and smooth. If you do, then the cylinder bore will be too large, and the seals and pistons will by-pass the brake fluid, which will leave you with NO brakes. There are some car manufacturers today that do not even offer a brake master cylinder rebuild kit because of the liability factor. You can only buy a new unit.
