and the clutch hydraulics failed as I got to the pump. It appears to be a
split in the clear plastic (nylon?) line near the slave cylinder joint.
Should I simply get a standard replacement or would it be better to get a
reinforced hose. I seem to remember some comments on this in the last few
weeks, but I did not take much notice. >>
I had the same hydraulic hose on my US Spec.1972 TR6 for
23 years until it developed a leak about 3 years ago. I figured
23 years was pretty good service, and I fitted the standard
replacement hose. Hopefully it will give the new owner of the
vehicle 20 more years of trouble free service....I sold the 6 last
year and went to the Darkside of the Force....Wedges!!!
