2 bolts, 1 hose, one pressure fitting. Hardest part is usually bleeding it. Get the new one and look under the steering column. 1/2 hour job at most. Dennis. BTW, Use good quality Brake fluid (DOT-4). -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com]On Behalf Of Steve Gough Sent: Thursday, February 01, 2001 3:21 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Time/effort to replace clutch master cylinder?
Our '86 Westy has a leaky clutch master cylinder. Bentley doesn't say much about the procedure. Before I decide to do it myself or take it to the local shop, can anybody give me a rough idea of the time it would take? It's not too obvious from poking around (i.e. without removing some stuff first)--don't need a step-by-step, just a general idea of time requirement. Is special bleeding equipment necessary? thanks, Steve
