slave cylinder replacement

(1/4) > >>

Discotel:
Hi all,

I have got a quick question for you...I have noticed that there is a fair old leak from the drain hole on the bell housing next to the slave cylinder, and every 3 hours I need to bleed my clutch on the Disco1. It has a new master cylinder fitted so does that mean it is the slave that has gone..!..Once it is bled I have clutch for about 3 hrs then the fluid leaks out and its gone again...I presume you can buy gasket kits/seal kits for them but maybe it is better to buy the unit itself at £28 + vat.

Regards, Terry

Discotel:
Also as I have fitted a 2' lift to the D1, should I remove the front anti roll bar as people say it counter acts the lift..!..It is not a road legal car and is on a trailer so no legal requirements.

Yeah..........sounds like its leaking inside.........a friends did that but he had wadeing plugs in and the first he knew was the clutch started to slip bad........always better to put a new unit on.

IMO.......first thing you should do if taking it off road.........and if its not fitted when you take em for an MOT then its one less thing for them to fail it on :wink:
