Master slave cylinder

[nsxtacey]

Mine took a massive dump today without any warning
Clutch pedal was fine yesterday and today when I backed out but then I was in first and letting the clutch out but it decided to not come back up. Then under the car was a pool of brake fluid. I thought there was a warning period where the clutch pedal hesitates coming up?

Please let us know where the leak is exactly.

You might want to consider changing the front and rear since they work together.

Usually the leak is under the driver floor board. Sounds like a pressurized hose ruptured.

Its in rear. the clutch fluid went from full to empty

Good idea...however the dealer just left a voicemail saying the slave is $300 but when I check online its about 115 :frown: The master is $85 online but they might charge me $250 Not sure how to go about this...

While doing my engine refresh, I noticed the slave leaking a bit. I ordered both. When I went to replace the master it was leaking also. I think everyone should inspect theirs. Better yet, if you have a 91-95 car it would be reasonable just to replace them and the fluid.

Please let me know where exactly. Bursted hose or slave?

Larry is great but really logistically hard for me

Funny thing..... today I wanted to take mine out for a drive and my clutch went flacid on me. Could not get into gear and the clutch pedal was all mushy.:frown:

A year ago i had the same problems turned out to be just only the hose between the slave and the metal line. the hose is about 30cm long and costs almost nothing and is very easy to replace (30 mnts.)

You should consider changing the master now, because you will have to change the master soon anyway, been there, done that! No value in a second flatbed.

I have to agree with Larry's advice... I wound up changing a leaking slave, of course after a short time later the master went... and few days after that the flex line sprung a leak. If I was to do it again I'd do all 3 at the same time, flush the fluid out and you'll be good for many years to come...

change them both at the same time.

if one is going out, the other is soon to follow since master and slave share the same fluid.

ouch on the flat bed!!!

get yourself a AAA premiere membership.

3xtows at 100 miles and 1x@200 miles!

+ you get free rental car for a day and hotel if you where on a road trip!

way awesome and worth the 150$ a year!

happy motoring

I called and said I wanted both done. Cost less than another flat bed
