my clutch pedal became real spongy, and doesnt have alot of spring left to it. i read some articles and after looking under my clutch pedal, i determined that my clutch master cylinder was shot. I could see the fluid leaking from the seals.
So when i went to the dealership to order the clutch master cylinder, then recommended that i replace the slave as well ( due to the part only costing 20 bucks.
This is my understanding of how it works
1) Driver pushes down the clutch pedal
2) The Clutch Master Cylinder gets pressed wich forces the hydraulic liquid to move in the hard line between the Clutch Master Cylinder and the Clutch Sladve Cylinder.
I understand that when the clutch is pushed in, it separates the plates, but what role does the clutch slave cylinder serve?
I have a good article on replacing the clutch master cylinder but replacing the clutch slave cylinder i am clueless.
-- What goes into the slave cylinder
-- What goes out of the slave cylinder
