Default Problem Solved

That master is a PITA squared. Spent 7.5 hours (6.0 hours car time) plus misc runnin' around. What a messy job (at least for me) Installed new master/slave clutch cyls. For those of you that insisted that it was the slave, you were correct. It was leaky. New gasket (homemade), hose, master and slave clutch cylinders and bled with my new Mightyvac power sitch. Useful for sucking excess fluid too. May try to drain my sinuses with it if these Fall LA allergies get any worse. Haven't figured out how to get the pedal bushing on and need a new one anyway.

Thanks for all of the helpful suggestions. The Gearwrenches were very helpful (Legoland) for removing those 13mm nuts on the firewall. Legoland also help me score a master and a slave for $107 plus tax at will call same day. Bless you and your new wrench (baby boy). I also picked up some (3 qts.) Redline MT90 for like nine bucks per.

Back in business baby!

Thanks Rennlist!

Michael
