93 Accord Clutch Master Replace
A friend has a 93 Accord with a very soft (but not leaking) clutch
pedal. Seems like a bad master cylinder to me. How do I get this out? The lower rightmounting bolt is not hard to take out but the upper left!!! Do I need to remove the dash? The Haynes manual is not helpfull and doesn't even mention bleeding or adjustments. Any other tips appreciated. It seems like replacing the slave may also be a good idea.... Sorry about the Google post but I am away from home. Cheers, Jeff |

I'm a first time posster to this group (I have read it) and am a little perplexed by the lack of an answer to a problem that surely many must have encountered. Is this too dumb a question to be troubled with or otherwise OT? Jeff > > How do I get this out?

You may wish to try bleeding the system before replacing things. You might just get lucky and the pedal will firm up. Bleeding is identical to any other hydraulic clutch system (or brake system for that matter). As for your upper left MC mounting nut, both nuts are removed from under the dash and no dash disassembly is necessary. You'll just have to find a way to do it, even if that means modifying tools with a torch and grinder to get them to fit. Using U-joints on your sockets will help, too. Try really small wrenches, or a 1/4" ratchet set. You will have to adjust the new MC pushrod after installation. -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
