First spray a little Penetrating fluid into join and junction where the petrol (metal) lines screw onto the petrol filter. I generally leave for a few hours !! then spray a little more just before undoing. Always try to undo the hardest to get to first. These joins are always very tight as they have a slight taper and bind up. Make sure you use a side spanner with a very neat fit and wide enough to catch onto the whole nut surface. I stress this because once damaged and burred, its hard to get service on the spanner. Then position spanner so you can hold it in one hand and give a quick belt to end of spanner with palm of other hand. !!! you have to sort of crack the bond quickly and usually they come fairly easy, but may take a few goes. Put some rags around to protect your knuckles and palm of your hand unless your really tough and like pain. If the spanner wont go on properly due to damaged nut!! you will have to try vice grips or take to a mechanic. Try to crack the joint quickly,i found trying to undo these petrol lines slowly with gradual force generally results in damage to the nut.I did mine 2 days ago ok in a few minutes.Make sure you screw threads back in accuratley or you can strip threads..its easier to put them back in if you undo the filter from the firewall to start nuts into holes then tighten down the fuel filter and tighten nuts off on the lines last. cheers Kiwi Craig
The fluid for the clutch comes from the brake fluid. After the brake master cylinder, there is a clutch master cylinder which takes fluid from the brakes. Fill up the Brake master cylinder.
Look to see where you fill the brake fluid and where your filling the brake fluid that is the master cylinder.
A brake master cylinder? If you are losing brakes or brake fluid.
Good time to replace all the brake fluid. Remove the brake lines from the Master Cylinder and pump the master cylinder dry. Add fresh brake fluid from an unopened can and bleed the master cylinder. Reinstall the brake lines and then bleed all brake lines until you see clean fluid. Keep adding fluid to the Master Cylinder until you are done.Good time to replace all the brake fluid.

To change out the abs master cylinder on a 97 Achieva, first clean the inside of the brake system. Then remove the fluid reservoir cap. Unplug the master cylinder and loosen the brake nuts. Pull away the abs master cylinder and replace.Ê
There is no fluid in the clutch....The clutch master cylinder takes DOT 3 brake fluid. It is the same fluid that you put into the brake master cylinder
If non brake fluid is added to the master cylinder, possibly.If non brake fluid is added to the master cylinder, possibly.
master cylinder
The clutch gets its fluid from the master brake cylinder reservoir. The master clutch cylinder sits just below the master brake cylinder reservoir and is fed fluid by gravity.
Generally brake fluid.
Master cylinder empty (no brake fluid) Leak in brake line or wheel cylinder Defective master cylinder
Master cylinder, is the brake fluid reservoir. It is mounted on the brake booster, on the firewall, driver's side.Master cylinder, is the brake fluid reservoir. It is mounted on the brake booster, on the firewall, driver's side.
