I'm trying to replace my clutch slave cylinder, as well as the hose leading to it, but I can't loosen the fitting on the pipe that connects to the clutch hose. I'm afraid of breaking the pipe if I use too much force on the wrench. I sprayed the area with B'laster, which hasn't made any difference yet. On top of that, the clevis pin that holds the push rod to the clutch lever is rusted in place and won't budge either. I would use a torch to heat them both up, but it doesn't look like the safest idea, mainly because everything in the area is covered by oil or underbody sealer. Does anyone have any tips how to get the old parts loose? Thanks. --Steve Shoyer 1980 MGB _______________________________________________ Mgs@autox.team.net Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Suggested annual donation $12.75 Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Forums: http://www.team.net/forums Unsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/mgs/mharc@autox.team.net |
