Cool

Do you have a hydraulic throw out bearing? If not your slave cylinder is bolted to the bellhousing on the outside. Now don't take this wrong, but if you didn't know that, this is the point in the manual that refers you to your local Authorized SPF Repair facility


Seriously, you likely are not ready for step #2 if you were not sure where to find your slave.. But should you wish to proceed start by cleaning off any and all brake fluid. Brake fluid eats paint and will destroy any painted surface in hours.

Then, follow the line from the clutch master cylinder to the trans. There should be a small hyhraulic cylinder at the end of the line. Make sure it is leaking.. Take it off.. Plug the hydraulic line or let it drain into a glass container. (do not reuse) Take it to your local Authorized SPF Repair Facility for a rebuild or a rebuild kit.. actually with any luck a good auto parts store should be able to get you a replacement or a rebuild kit.

Chances are you have a very easy to find comercially available unit that is either a pusher or puller type and hopefully it is marked with amaker and a part number for easy reference.

if not you may want to contact SPF especially if it is under warranty.
