[Healeys] Clutch slave cylinder

[gradea1 at charter.net]

If you don't want to mess up the fitting, use a flare nut wrench. It
can get on with the line attached and it grips about 3/4 of the body.

  3/8” UNF is the thread size. 9/16” is the wrench size.

	I am installing a remote clutch bleeder of the type that’s been
discussed on this list from time to time. (Comes up from underneath
with a bracket that goes under one of the gearbox bolts). 

	So, I thought I’d replace the clutch pipe and rebuild the slave
cylinder at the same time. (Wise?) precautions….certainly, these
things are at least 25 years old. 

	The bleed nipple was solid to the cylinder body as was the pipe and
neither would twitch until I had the assembly in a big vice. 

	The interior of the cylinder was filled with some dried out but
slightly greasy flakey nastiness. God knows what. 

	I need to undo the so-called “nut for hose”, item 18 in the
attached. Does anyone know it’s size?  

	Thanks, 

	Simon
