badjuju Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I've got a raybestos slave cyl, because when i originally did my l28et swap into my 73, schucks was the only place open. I've since had the seal on the slave cyl fail 4 times, all within 3 months of each other, meaning within the period where I could come back and swap for a functional one. Now, the reason I haven't got a different brand is that this always seems to happen at 7:15 pm within three miles of a schucks. I'm wondering, wtf is happening? has anyone had problems like this? Am I simply a fool for continuing to use a raybestos part because I want my $30 worth of part? I'm running DOT3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop N Wood Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I struggled with my clutch slave for some time. It would just keep leaking fluid. Finally someone here warned me the master and slave should be replaced in pairs. When I took the master out for the V8 upgrade I found fluid all inside the car. Guess they were right. My advice is buy a new clutch master and a $12 brake cylinder hone, then clean up the slave yourself. Another option is to find a place that will put a stainless steel sleave in the slave. Suppose to be a permanent fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badjuju Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 Z Sport suggested to me today that it could be an issue between a 75 slave cyl and a 73 master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
