I am trying to remove the clutch master cylinder on my '87 S1. No trouble getting the bolts undone and the hydraulic line off but how do I get the fork on the push rod off. It has a strange looking setup as in the photo attached.

you remove the clevis-pin and than the pedal should be free to be pulled out a bit to free the fork.

Thanks guys.
Still difficult to get to for someone old like me but it is off. New cylinder purchased and just need to make up a plate to go between the cylinder and the firewall as the hole in the firewall is much too big and the flange on the old cylinder had broken where it wasn't supported properly.
I will not use the original pin as it is quite worn so will need to make something else up.

Thanks Mike. I have plenty of options and that is a bit far away for me.
