The clutch master is located in the right upper corner, behind the white plastic reservoir of the brake servo. |
|
|
Here you can see the clutch reservoir in situ with the top plate already taken off. |
|
|
You can see lots of grime in the fluid. The cylinder was also leaking. |
|
|
This is not only annoying as you need to top up regularly, you also get serious corrosion from the aggressive clutch fluid. |
|
|
You need to undo all the screws that secure the pedal boxes to the bulkhead. This is done form the inside. Also disconnect the pipe leading to the cylinder. |
|
|
Next you push the brake and throttle assy to the side. |
|
|
And withdraw the clutch box. |
|
|
This is a bit difficult as the brake servo is in the way. Don't undo the brake pipes! Thanks Rover for this clever bit of engineering! |
|
|
Once out, undo the nuts securing the pushrod and withdraw the old cylinder. |
|
|
Here you can see the broken and leaking old cylinder. This is a common problem and should occur after about 30-40,000 km. Another clever bit of engineering! |
|
|
Clean the clutch box before fitting new cylinder as the fluid is aggressive. |
|
The new cylinder. These aren't expensive and so you should go for OEM parts only. |
|
|
It is fitted to the box. |
|
|
And the pushrod is loosely secured. |
|
|
Now you need to refit the box to the bulkhead. Secure the brake assy and clutch assy carefully! |
|
|
Connect the pipework, adjust the pushrod properly and finally refit the cover plate. |
