Changing clutch master cylinder issue.

[Lyrred]

Changing my clutch master cylinder and the hydraulic line that runs from the master to the slave is being a PITA. Its not turning and i have limited space to work with. Its the only thing stopping me. Any advice?

You are using a flare wrench on the fitting, right? They can be difficult to break loose.

No..just an 11 mm. What size flare wrench should i use?

[FLG]

Dont quote me but im fairly sure its an 11mm for the line and 14mm to hold the rubber line

Be sure to use plenty of penetrating oil, and if you strip em youll have to break out the vise grips.


edit: Also if you have a small pump style oiling cans, makes a great tool for bleeding. Hook up a rubber line to it and hook that to the slave bleeder screw then pump brake fluid thru from the bottom up.
