STEP 3 - REMOVE HYDRAULIC LINES

Locate the driven clutch cylinder and remove the hydraulic lines or hoses that go into it. You may need to use some penetrating spray on the nut used to secure the hose to the slave cylinder. Be extra careful not to overbend the hydraulic line as it may crack or break.


Step 4 - Drain Cylinder Fluid

With the hose disconnected, place the drip pan under the slave cylinder and let fluid flow into it. After draining the liquid, set the drip tray aside and remember to take the liquid to a recycling center for proper disposal.

Step 8 - Add Brake Fluid

Fill the clutch master cylinder reservoir with brake fluid and replace the cap.


Step 9 - Bleed the Clutch Slave Cylinder

Use a wrench to open the bleed valve on the new slave cylinder. Turn the valve only until fluid and air begin to escape from it. Be sure to put the drip pan back in place before doing this. After deflating the cylinder, close the bleed valve.


Step 10 - Fill the Tank with Fluid

Add extra brake fluid to top up the master cylinder reservoir.
