Clutch Slave Cylinder: Service and Repair

^ Tool Required:
- J 36221 Hydraulic Clutch Line Separator

REMOVE OR DISCONNECT

CAUTION: Before removing or installing any electrical unit or when a tool or equipment could easily come in contact with "live" exposed electrical terminals, disconnect the battery negative cable assembly to help prevent personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or components. Unless instructed otherwise, the ignition switch must be in the "OFF" or "LOCK" position.

1. Battery negative cable.
2. Actuator cylinder line (9) from actuator using J 36221.
3. 5-speed manual transmission.
4. Actuator cylinder bolts/screws (10).
5. Clutch actuator cylinder from transmission.

INSTALL OR CORRECT

NOTICE: Always use the correct fastener in the correct location. When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part number for that application. The manufacturer will call out those fasteners that require a replacement after removal. The manufacturer will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHER WISE SPECIFIED, do not use supplemental coatings (paints, greases, or other corrosion inhibitors) on the threaded fasteners or fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When you install fasteners, use the correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and systems.

1. Clutch actuator cylinder to transmission.
2. Actuator cylinder bolts/screws (10).

Tighten
- Clutch actuator cylinder bolts/screws (10) to 8 Nm (71 inch lbs.).

3. 5-speed manual transmission.
4. Actuator cylinder line (9) to actuator.

Important:
- Make sure the braced actuator line is not twisted or kinked. Line must be maintained away from other components to avoid damage to the line.
- Quick connect fitting moist be pushed on, then pulled back to verify engagement. Do not rely on audible click or visual verification.

5. Batter, negative cable.
6. Bleed hydraulic system.
