Clutch master Cylinder rebuild

evilgidget · #1 (**permalink**) 08-01-2004, 03:07 PM

Does anyone have a pic of the exploded view of which way the seals go in a 33's clutch master cylinder, and also maybe where the big o-ring goes that's supplied in the rebuild kit?

PO pulled it all apart & i haven't found a manual yet...

Cheers all

This is from the 75, it might be the same.

That one looks more like the slave cylinder, mounted on the gearbox. I'm after the one that bolts to the firewall next to the brake reservoir (it'll probably need to be pulled & rebuilt soon anyway

)
Cheers mate.

Whoops, sorry.

Just checked again and there is no exploded view of the clutch master cylinder in any of the 75 manuals I have (including CarDisc). Nor on the parts CD.

I got one of a 'sud from my manual. I reckon it should be the same. I don't have a scanner here so hopefully I can pop round a friends tomorrow (monday) and post it. Watch this space.....

Does it look similar to an Alfetta one? If it is, just let me know - i have a 'fetta manual here that's reasonably clear, but not quite the same.

Similar. The 'sud has a washer(?) between the piston and the rubber seal next to the spring. That seems like the only difference between the two (excluding the reservior).

Ok, well it didn't all go to plan, got it all fitted up & noticed that it leaked badly out of the top grommet (not supplied in the kit - most unusual...

). Off to my "ex-alfa australia" spare parts friend, only to hear back that the stupid little grommet that should only cost 2 or 3 bucks at the most was actually an unobtainium seal. Only way of fixing it was a new complete brand spankers clutch master cylinder...

Anyhow, after lightening my wallet by a vast amount, my new car is now moving.

Now it's just waiting on a full set of filters, plugs, leads & a coolant flush, and she'll be ready for a good long drive or five
