clutch slave cylinder success!
<center><img src="http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e370/awdaudi/IMG_9913.jpg"></center><p>
taking a page out of deephouse's book (thanks brian) I finally got around to searching for the plug for the line hole in the slave cylinder so as to keep the tension to a minimum and make the install easier. Problem was...nobody sells Earl's fittings around here...next best thing was to have a shop that makes brake hoses and hydraulic lines fab up something that'd do the job..
here it is......all $3.30 worth! Worked great!
the length of the shaft sticking out is basically irrelevant. It's got a reverse flare on the end, and is what seals the hole. The other end is sealed in the fitting at the other end of the shaft. The guy didn't know how long to make it and it actually worked like a handle to hold the slave cylinder in place long enough to get the bolt started.
