<p dir="ltr">Worn out slave cylinder causes clutch release problems.<br>
Worn clutch fork also. Not the master cylinder being .70.<br>
I would stick with the.70 mc. Unless you like a heavy clutch.<br></p>

>>> For what it's worth, I went straight from DOT 3 to silicone. I replaced the master cylinder because it was old, but I kept the slave. Flushed it all out with silicone fluid and never had a problem in the following three years I owned the car. I would stay with the .70 clutch. There was a reason it was changed, but for the life of me I cannot remember. My '72 had the .75 bore part. The effort seemed okay but I didn't care much for the long throw.<br>
