  Q: How to replace the Clutch Slave Cylinder on Chevrolet Corvette?

  A:

  Begin clutch actuator cylinder replacement by disconnecting the negative Battery Cable followed by removal of the left instrument panel lower insulator panel. Extract the clutch master cylinder rod retainer and the clutch master cylinder rod from the clutch pedal sequence. First lift the vehicle then remove the windshield washer solvent container. Run a clip removal tool on the Clutch Hose connection retaining clip then disconnect its hose from the clutch master cylinder while wrapping each hose coupling end in protective covering against contaminants. The vehicle requires removal of the driveline support assembly along with the transaxle before the Clutch Hose connection retaining clip must be detached to separate the Clutch Hose from the clutch actuator cylinder while protecting both components. Pull out the mounting bolts which secure the clutch actuator cylinder before extracting the cylinder from the driveline support assembly. To fit the assembly, set the clutch actuator cylinder on the driveline support structure and screw in mounting bolts torqued to 12 n.m (106 lb in). To attach the Clutch Hose to its connection with the clutch actuator cylinder use the retaining clip while performing force tests on the hose fittings for firmness. Reposition the driveline support assembly along with the transaxle followed by attachment of the Clutch Hose connection retaining clip. Verify proper engagement between the clutch actuator cylinder hose and the clutch master cylinder hose before connection. Check the clutch hydraulic hoses for curves and kinks before connecting the clutch actuator cylinder hose to its dangling clip beneath the Brake Master Cylinder. Return the windshield washer solvent container when the vehicle is lowered into position. Screw and tighten the clutch master cylinder rod to the clutch pedal before putting on the rod retainer. Reinstall the left instrument panel lower insulator panel. You must connect the negative Battery Cable while tightening the bolt to 15 n.m (11 lb ft). After programming the transmitters you should bleed the clutch hydraulic system.

  Q: How to service and repair the Clutch Slave Cylinder on Chevrolet Corvette?

  A:

  The first step to work on the Clutch Slave Cylinder requires disconnecting the vehicle's negative Battery Cable. Disassemble the lh i/p lower insulator panel and clutch master cylinder rod retainer followed by removal of the clutch master cylinder rod from the clutch pedal. Rise the vehicle and apply proper vehicle support. Release the clutch actuator cylinder hose at the engine's rear end from its hose retaining clip. While utilizing the hydraulic clutch line separator (J 36221) users must activate the white circular release ring on the actuator hose and carefully pull the master cylinder hose until separation occurs, while maintaining protection of both hose ends from debris and damage. Take the driveline support assembly along with transaxle out of the vehicle before removing clutch actuator cylinder mounting bolts to extract the clutch actuator cylinder from the driveline support assembly. To install the clutch actuator cylinder place it on the driveline support assembly followed by applying 12 nm (106 inch lbs.) torque to the actuator cylinder mounting bolts. Place the driveline support assembly together with the transaxle back into the vehicle while making sure the clutch hydraulic hose quick connect fittings remain tightly engaged. Check the hydraulic hoses for twists and kinks before installing the clutch actuator cylinder hose into the hose retaining clip at the engine's rear section. After lowering the vehicle position the clutch master cylinder rod inside the clutch pedal and secure the clutch master cylinder rod retainer. Attach the negative Battery Cable to its mounting point while tightening the bolt to 15 nm (11 ft. Lbs.). Reinstall the lh i/p lower insulator panel. Proceed to program the transmitters while finishing by performing a bleed on the clutch hydraulic system.
