[Tigers] Tigers Digest, Vol 9, Issue 171

Bill:

I found a pic that I took a couple of years ago of the engine of my Tiger just before it went back in the car.  It shows the correct positioning of the slave cylinder bracket.  The slave cylinder, if it were attached to the bracket in this picture, would be mounted on the forward-facing side of the bracket with the pushrod and rubber boot protruding rearward through the center hole of the bracket.  The end of the pushrod would, of course, be screwed into the adjustable nut that is clipped to the release bearing lever.

I hope this is of some assistance.  Let us know how it works out.

The end is near, with refit of the clutch slave it was determined to be leaking, a new slave cyl was delivered from SS and it is also leaking, leading me to believe there may be a configuration issue.

I've attached some jpg of what I have so far, and would appreciate any feedback on which direction the 'slave mounting bracket' should be facing.  Which would hopefully reduce any extra con$sternation on the part of the mechanic.
