On my list of 'things to do while the engine is machined' was a clutch hydraulics rebuild (remeber, this is for a '72 Midget now). When I pressed the clutch, it wouldn't move...there was fluid inthe

And I'll speculate: Marcus: Isn't there some leftwards preasure (wrt your nice drawing) on the piston from the rod? That is: the spring pushes on the piston from one direction and the rod pushes on t

I have to say no, there is no leftwards pressure from the rod. This is saying that the release bearing is ALWAYS in contact with the clutch, thus providing the pressure. This is impossible, as the b

Yes, I thought about that about a minute after I sent the posting. OTOH, the preasure the spring is providing to the piston and hence to the rod is pretty darn slight. It ain't that much of a spring

For what it's worth, I went and looked at my TR-6 manaul and its clutch slave cylinder is assembled the same way: from the hose end, it goes spring, filler block, seal, piston, rod. --berry

When you re-install the clutch lever arm, you will have to push the piston in. When I reinstalled my slave after an overhaul, I was squirted with brake fluid as the piston moved back and compressed t

I mentioned this last time bleeding came up but I think it's worth mentioning again. An easier alternative (IMO) to a syringe is one of those chemical squeeze bottles. I have one that's about a pint
