Honda 8-97110-221-0 Clutch Master Cylinder Assembly

To remove more clutch slave cylinder now follow the steps, first secure the vehicle on the jackstands and then raise it slightly. Find the clutch slave cylinder on the side of the transmission bellhousing and detach the hydraulic line from this by removing the banjo bolt and two nuts. If there is no banjo fitting available, then you remove the tube nut and the hose fitting from the body of the cylinder. If the hydraulic hose is damaged, remove the tube nut and pull the retainer clip to change the hydraulic hose. After that, it is required to take out two retaining nuts and pull the slave cylinder. In the overhaul, remove the dust boot and pushrod and place the cylinder on a wooden block and gently strike the cylinder to remove the piston and the spring. Take out the bleeder screw and study the surface of the piston and cylinder bore and if the surface shows signs of scoring then just eliminate the cylinder and buy a new one. If the states of the components are acceptable, clean the components with fresh brake fluid, requires to take off and eliminate the seal and identify the polarity of the seal lips. Acquire a repair kit that comprises all new parts then fit the new lip of the seal in the right orientation. Soak the piston assembly in clean brake fluid and then install with the spring into the cylinder and put back the bleeder screw. To complete the reassembly just fit the pushrod and close the dust cover of the cylinder housing. For installation, the process is reversed to the removal process, bleed the clutch hydraulic system after installation.

To reject the clutch master cylinder, one has to uncouple the hydraulic pipe from the clutch master cylinder and discharge the fluid to a suitable jar, by using a flare nut wrench if possible in order not to mar the fitting. After that, under the dash, one should unlock the clevis pin securing the pushrod to the clutch pedal and then, as for the master cylinder, remove the flange mounting nuts to separate it from the firewall. In the case of the overhaul, the retaining clamp needs to be unscrewed, and the reservoir needs to be pulled off, after which the master cylinder has to be fixed in the vise, pushing down the piston after which remove the snap-ring with the help of snap-ring pliers or a tiny screw-driver. Remove the piston and spring in such a way that the sealing lip is in a forward position. This area, located internally on the cylinder bore, can develop scoring or bright wear and, in this eventuality, the master cylinder will need to be substituted entirely. If the bore in well-maintained, then get a rebuild kit which will consist of other vital components which will be replaced, these parts should be washed using brake fluid and then fitted. Replacing the parts, in a sequence in which they were removed; the piston seal lip should be positioned forward. Last but not the least, the clutch master cylinder should be fitted in place against the firewall, the pedal pushrod should be slid into place into the piston region should be tightened securely and the hydraulic system for the clutch should be bled followed by standardizing the height of the pedal and the degree of freeplay.
