Title: Slave cylinder boot
Post by: puddles on July 25, 2013, 06:54:31 AM
I am now working on a small oil leak. I think I found it, the lowest bolt of the clutch slave cylinder was loose. I tightened it, and it seems to have stopped, however the boot behind the slave cylinder (I assume its for the pushrod) is pushed out and now has a hole from rubbing on the chain. I want to replace this boot, but I can't find the part on the microfiche. Also, should I put some blue or green loctite on the bolts. They seem to seal in the case. Is there another gasket that I should change behind the slave? Thoughts?

What you probably have isn't an oil leak but a slave leaking. You might be able to replace o-rings, or just get a new slave.

Don't loctite the slave screws.

I agree with Ddan. Your slave is probably leaking
