hello everyone,

well last night after coming out after work to check on my van's clutch slave thats not
really working right anymore, noticed a puddle * great * lucky I had a bottle and half
of some fuild to make it home. ( pedel went to the floor no pressure ) ahh 10:30pm raining
worked all night.  * Its dripping from the bottom of the slave near the rubber boot * BTW new one
should be here Sat. I pour fuild in and try to pump air out myself to get pedel hard enuff to drive
home, no luck so i call my co-worker to come down and pedel pump it while i open bleeder, this
starts to push all the air out since i lost all my fuild during the night while working. ( It gets stiff enuff
to put in gear nice some i can make it home in the pouring rain ;) fun. no grins nice smooth shifting
I just wanted to not loose all the fuild at a stop, so I drove fwy miles and made it.

I'm not driving it anymore since this was the final straw, it in the nice warm garage.

storys over, hehe

anyway does anyone have a good proceeure for installing a new clutch slave cly, I checked my bently
also. I'm open for info, since this weekend I'll be working on this to get my daily on the road again.

thanks much
Joe
