How do you replace the clutch line in a 93 toyota camry?

Question

I seem to have no clutch pressure. The master fluid reservoir was empty. I filled it. However when I manual move the clutch up and done the fluid in the reservoir gets low. The only place that there seems to be a leak is where both the master and slave cylinder clutch line connects to the clutch accumulator(?)(think that's what it's called). I want to replace, both the master and slave cylinder and the clutch line. Just don't know how to get at the clutch line. Help!!! Thanks

Chances are that there is nothing wrong with your line. What can happen, with age, is that the seals in the slave and master can seep fluid, if the fluid is old. Your owner's manual will tell you to change the fluid in the clutch and brake system every two years. There is a good reason for this. These fluids are hygroscopic and naturally absorb moisture from the air. After 2 years, it has absorbed all that it can, and the fluid becomes acidic and corrosive. You probably wont need to replace the slave or the master if you flush the system out with fresh fluid. Usually, the new fluid will unstick the seals and make them useful again. Use only Toyota fluid, not the junk from the autoparts store. There is a difference!!!
