Description
The clutch master cylinder mounts to the clutch pedal
and consists of a piston and cylinder housing, an actu-
ating push rod, and an interconnecting hydraulic line.
Fluid is supplied to the clutch master cylinder via the
brake fluid reservoir.
Operation
When the clutch pedal is depressed, the push rod moves the piston in the master cylinder, displacing fluid through
the hydraulic line and into the release bearing. The release bearing is extended and forces the fingers of the clutch
diaphragm springs to move. As the fingers move, they release the clamping pressure on the clutch disc between the
clutch pressure plate and the flywheel. The clutch becomes disengaged as this pressure is released. When the clutch
pedal is released, the system hydraulic pressure is released. This allows the force of the clutch diaphragm springs to
return themselves to their original position, re-clamping the clutch disc between the flywheel and the clutch pressure
plate. Also, the release bearing is forced to return, which reverses the movement of the hydraulic system and returns
the pedal to its original position against the up stop.
Removal & Installation
1. Disconnect hydraulic supply line to clutch mastercylinder (1) to completely drain clutch master cylin-
der and tubing.
2. Disconnect hydraulic line (1) and drain fluid into suitable container.

5. Remove hydraulic line from rail retainer.
6. Release master cylinder by rotating to disengage from pedal bracket assembly.
CAUTION:
Use care when removing clutch master cylinder from engine compartment. Aggressive handling
can result in a damaged hydraulic line and improper clutch release operation upon reassembly.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces. If brake fluid is spilled on any painted surfaces, wash it
off immediately with water.
7. Remove the master cylinder assembly (1) from the mounting position and carefully maneuver the
hydraulic pipe from the engine compartment.

ervoir cap is installed tightly.1. Remove the clutch master cylinder outlet pipe (1) from the clutch slave cylinder.
(Tighten: Outlet pipe bolt to 17 ± 1 N·m)
2. Remove the clutch slave cylinder bolts (1) from the transaxle housing.
(Tighten: Clutch slave cylinder bolts to 11 ± 1 N·m)
3. Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
4. Bleed the hydraulic clutch (See Bleeding Hydraulic Clutch in Section 08 Transaxle). NOTE: Check pipes for leakage of brake fluid.

Operation
1. Verify fluid level in brake master cylinder. Top offwith DOT 4 brake fluid as necessary. Leave cap
off.
2. Raise the vehicle on hoist.
3. Remove the bleed port protective cap and install a suitable size and length of clear hose to monitor and divert fluid into a suitable container.
4. Loosen the bleed port (1).
5. Actuate the clutch pedal until the brake master cylinder fluid drains from the bleed port.
6. Depress the clutch pedal, tighten the bleed port.
7. From driver’s seat, actuate the clutch pedal until the hydraulic clutch system has pressure.
8. Depress the clutch pedal, loosen the bleed port and bleed the brake master cylinder fluid.
9. Repeat steps 6 to 8 several times until there is no air in the hydraulic clutch system.
NOTE :
Do not allow clutch master cylinder to run dry while fluid exits bleed port.
10. Close the hydraulic bleed port, remove the drain hose and replace the dust cap on the bleed port.
11. Top off the brake master cylinder fluid level with DOT 4 brake fluid as necessary.
CAUTION:
During the bleeding process, make sure the brake master cylinder fluid is always full.
