[Mgs] Clutch Hose Replacement

[Matt Trebelhorn]

You asked how to do it -- here's my suggestion.

The hardest part is re-attaching the top of the hose.  Everything  
else is fairly simple.

1.  drain the fluid.
2.  cut the hose -- actually, cut away all of the rubber part until  
all that remains are the metal fittings on either end.
3.  Put a deep-well socket on these and remove.  (For the top, you  
will need an open-end wrench on the nut above.)
4.  attach new hose to slave cyl.
5.  attach new hose to hard line.  I do this final step from the top  
side, reaching down through the engine bay, using one wrench to hold  
the hose and the other to turn the nut.

It's been a few months since I did this, so I may have forgotten  
something.  But that's pretty much it.

Also, when I did it, it was part of a complete hydraulic system fix  
-- pedal box and both masters out, rebuild clutch master and slave,  
etc.  I actually put the hose on the slave before they went back on  
the car, I think... but not important for your purposes.

Not that tough -- good luck with it.
