How does one access the front end of the clutch master cylinder to remove the unit for rebuild? Does something else have to be disassembled ?

You have to reach up above the pedals into the pedal block assembly and remove the retaining clip and pin that connects the clutch master cylinder piston shaft (#10 in diagram) to the clutch pedal. It sounds more difficult than it is. I've replaced one once but it was a while ago and I don't recall any special techniques were needed.

Incorrect!!! Pull the 2 13 mm nuts and the line, tap the clutch master and it comes right out, pin stays on pedal assembly :wink:

Yup - Jim's right. Sorry about that, I forgot how simple it was. And Jim was the one who told me how to do it years ago. :oops:

And I was thinking my hand was just too big and trying to convince the wife to stick her hand up there!!

Thanks you both for your answers (especially Jim )
