Suggestion, loosen the flare nut, but don't remove at first. Minimize time line is open, dripping, and sucking air. Remove the mounting nuts, then back underhood, remove line then remove old mc. Next drop new mc into place, and hand tighten line into place, before going back under dash to install nuts and pin. Not only will this make less mess, less air to bleed, it'll also be easier to start flare nut threads when mc is free to move around.
Thanks to your videos, I was able to fix a ton on my car including the CMC and even the squeak and got my car back on the road after 2 years. Feels nice to drive the S2K again!! Your videos are amazing. I have barely any experience working on cars, but these videos makes even a first timer know what they're doing.
Beware, I did this job recently and getting the clutch hardline to screw into the clutch master cylinder was much more difficult then he makes it appear haha. If you can't get the inverted flare nut at the tip of the hardline to line the threads up right, you'll be spinning that nut for hours. What's the definition of insanity?... To make life easier, there's a retainer clip lower in the engine bay along the firewall that holds the clutch line. If you unclip the hardline it's easier to line up the threaded ends. I have an AP2. These videos are sick! Keep it up, you daaaa man.
Nice I need this I'm new to this car thing but got a fire deal on a s2000 thought I burned the clutch but I felt some leaking in the Clutch had an idea that it was this but now this confirmed it nice 🔥🔥🔥
Any experience with the LMC407? This seems quite a bit different from the Adler one shown in the video as the casting marks show 1 on the side instead of 2... not sure what they are supposed to represent from Nissin's side. Thanks for the '06+ section, will remember to do that!
would it work to adjust the rod before install.....to match the length of the rod of the CMC being replaced. It took me forever to find the right spot of clutch bite point that worked for me when I had my CMC replaced. Or are measurements different with each CMC and it wouldn't work.
I have a brake stopper, that applies pressure to the cmc for it to not move. Will this apply too much pressure to it?? (I had it on my previous rsx, and decided to put one in the S aswell)
For what it’s worth, I’ve never seen a clutch slave cylinder leak. But yeah I agree with Jacob. It’s a fairly simple system so trace where the fluid flows and look for leaks.
