Re: Clutch master cylinder removal

Thanks for that Marten.
That picture shows as if there is lots of room around the Master Cylinder for access. But on my 1990 SE as said
the Fuse & Relay Board is in the way, of seeing it & getting to it.

Re: Clutch master cylinder removal

Tried taking some photos but the Fuse & Relay Board kept getting in the way. Even wedged the Pedal down, but still couldn't s...

Re: Clutch master cylinder removal

The last thing I want to do is remove the Dash.
Am I looking in the wrong place is it outside of the Pedal Box, on the Righthand side?

Re: Clutch Master Cylinder & Slave Cylinder.

Hi Marten, have you tried fitting the ADT 33431 M/C?
It looks the same as the Brake Engineering MC1602BE & the Dorman CM39296
