Subject:81 Clutch Slave Cylinder Removal
From:Patrick Harris
Date:Sat, 4 Aug 2001 11:01:13 -0700

Hey guys,

Okay, since my only manual is a Chilton, it's not giving me any info on how
to remove the slave cylinder for the clutch from it's little holding
bracket.  IT's leaking something fierce so I purchased a rebuild kit for it.
  So, I got undernieth it the other day to see what it will involve.  I
looked at it, or should I said I felt it, and found that one bolt will be a
b*tch to get out.  So, I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion to help
get it out.

Also, the arm to the clutch where it meets with the slave cylinder piston,
is that supposed to be free or attached?  If it's supposed to be attached,
than I guess I have a bigger problem than what I've guessed.

Any help would be appreciated!
