URGENT! Clutch slave seals failed need seal kit or cylinder!
Discussion
I know, I said to Nick yesterday that it was a bad omen for me with his going.I'm just glad it went, not only here in the UK but also at teh end of my drive!!! Talk about lucky.
Have a feeling it's going to mean the change Monday night is going to be a pain.
Gonna try for a record breaking time.
Paul? Hi mate, it's me.... 
You're a brave man to try and fix it yourself as the slave is inside the bellhousing....
While you're at work check the mains and the clutch. On both the cerbs I had a slave failure always presaged something else. Clutch should feel really light, but they get heavier and you don't notice until the inevitable happens.

Done, 6 hours with 2 of us working with coffee and fag breaks.
If you have access to a ramp it's actually a fairly easy job.
Big thanks to all that have helped over the last few days. Especially Andy at APM, Clever Trevor, plasticman and Mad Mark.
The worst part of the job was fixing the previous
ups and improving the cack design of the slave cylinder. It had been beaten and was slightly oval. Also the finish from TVR leaves a little to be desired. No lead in for the seals when fitting and no chamfers on the oil passageways. All good now though.
