Preperation and Precautions
Be careful to not touch body panels with brake fluid on you or your clothes, as it can damage automotive finishes. Jack the vehicle front driver side for wheel removal. Support the vehicle with suitable jack stands. Never work under a vehicle supported by only a jack! Chock the rear wheels, and set the parking brake. Remove the front left wheel. | |||||||
Removal
Remove the screws and push-pins attaching the wheel well liner to the body. On the clutch master cylinder (CMC), pull the metal retaining clip to the "unlock" position with needle-nose pliers or by inserting and twisting a flat-blade screwdriver. Using a pair of wrenches, hold the fitting on the clutch flex line still, and unscrew the tube nut on the metal line side, separating them. Catch any fluid that spills with a suitable container for proper disposal. Carefully pry the CDV fitting straight out of the clutch master cylinder with the hard line attached. Pull downward on the plastic retaining clip holding the hard line to the chassis to disengage it. Unclip the retainer, and move it from the old clutch line to the new one. Remove the old hard line with the CDV attached. |
