URGENT Master Clutch Cylinder

[djwilk]

Hi,
It turns out that I also managed to break my clutch master cylinder, so I would need one as well. MF show no stock. Anyone in a position to tell me where I can source one from and have it by tomorrow?

I might have a cunning plan

Longshot...but if it was the same as an old Camaro I have a used one sitting here. Doubt it is though.

Failing that, Raving etc prob best bet ?


How did it break ?

[djwilk]

The plastic shaft seized in the cylinder and I forced to press it and it broke by the pedal assembly. Or at least that is my explanation.

If I get it by tomorrow, I will go abroad again

Good news,
Andy @ MF might be able to sort me out. Will know more by 1pm

All sorted and on its way to me, by midday tomorrow

Now, anyone any hints on replacing of the master cylinder? I guess it is to be done from the engine bay side. Will I be ok to do it from the top or does it have to be from the bottom?

Ive done it in a monaro, just undo the clutch line, undo the 2 bolts, then the clip from the pedal and i think thats about it

Thanks guys. I will have a go.

It's not to bad a job two 10 mm bolts hold it to the pedal box a 1/4 drive socket set & a pick to remove the clip on the pipe is all that's needed

Make sure you are careful with both pipes & that the rubber a leave for the feed pipe is fitted to the master otherwise it will leak

Thanks Neil.
