Originally posted by XtremeRS Next, there is one 10mm bolt on the inside firwall, that bolts the clutch master to the firewall
That bolt on my '99 RS is 12mm, and they are both nuts.
Three tips I found:
1.) The clip inside the cylinder can be a royal pia, SOoooooo.... put the cylinder in a vice where the flap of the cylinder is pressing on one side, and the end of the rod is pushing against the other. If you can get a buddy to hold the cylinder against the vice, that's best. And it went in VERY easy (spent ~30min before that trying).
2.) Use a spare M10 bolt and put it through the clutch pedal & the rod end of the master cylinder, then simply push it back out from the other end w/ the pin
3.) Take that @&$%%^@#*($^ spring-loaded washer on the pin to clutch pedal OFF!!! There's no way I could get the hole to even show to even attempt to put the pin through.
Yes, I know this thread is 2yrs old, but my Master Cylinder went out & was using this for reference... and I'm 6'4" and don't fit so well underneath the dash.
