It appears my clutch master cylinder went out. I've replaced the slave cylinder already, so that leaves the MC which I believe is back-bleeding; can somebody point me in the direction of where I might find removal instructions? Or give me a rundown on how to remove the MC? I'm picking up a new one today and intend/hope to install it tomorrow.
Thanks! This post has been edited by GriffGirl: Oct 11, 2008 - 4:31 PM --------------------  |

I feel confident in my ability to change the tranny oil (which I will be doing tomorrow regardless of whatever the hell is wrong with the car, unless of course there's metal shavings when I drain the tranny) but I want to check the linkage too and rule it out as a possible culprit before I delve into dropping the tranny. Is the linkage basically those connecting rods on the firewall side that run from the shifter to the transmission? What kinds of things should I check for?
