Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the paint as it will damage the finish. Removal: Remove the brake fluid reservoir cap and siphon out enough fluid so that the level is below the level of the reservoir fluid hose connection to the clutch master cylinder. Do not empty the reservoir, as this will draw air into the brake system. To improve access, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Release the bolts and remove the splash shield for access to the transmission bellhousing. For metal slave cylinders, place a container beneath the hydraulic pipe connection on the clutch slave cylinder to catch escaping brake fluid. Unscrew the union nut and disconnect the fluid line. Unscrew the securing nuts and withdraw the slave cylinder from the mounting studs on the bellhousing. For plastic slave cylinders, remove the slave cylinder mounting nuts and withdraw the slave cylinder from the mounting studs on the transmission. Pry out the retaining clip and disconnect the fluid line from the cylinder. Inspection: Inspect the slave cylinder for fluid leaks and damage, and replace if necessary. Installation: On models with a plastic slave cylinder, press the piston into the cylinder, then reconnect the fluid pipe. Refill the fluid reservoir, then extend and compress the piston in the cylinder five times while holding the cylinder vertical. The remainder of installation is the reverse of removal, noting the following points: Before installation, clean and lightly grease the end of the slave cylinder pushrod. Tighten the mounting nuts to the specified torque. Top off the fluid level and bleed the clutch hydraulic system.
