A squeak from the slave cylinder when the pedal is released often indicates a lack of lubrication or a worn-out component within the hydraulic system. The release of the clutch pedal can cause the internal parts of the slave cylinder to move against each other, resulting in noise if they are not properly lubricated. Additionally, a faulty or failing slave cylinder may also produce unusual sounds due to internal wear or improper alignment. It's advisable to inspect the cylinder and surrounding components to determine the exact cause.
Yes. If either cylinder or the line fails, you lose the clutch pedal. Slave cylinder is a good place to start.
The clutch pedal assembly has a clutch rod that pushes in on a clutch master cylinder. There is a hydro line that goes from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder.
clamp the line to the slave cylinder and mash the clutch pedal. if the pedal gets hard to push,the slave is bad. if the clutch pedal goes down slowly with moderate pressure,the master cyl is bad clamp the line going to the slave cylinder. meant to say that in the previous answer
The master clutch cylinder is attached to the clutch pedal. When one depresses the pedal hydraulic fluid is forced from the master cylinder through the hard line to the slave cylinder. The piston in the slave cylinder is driven against the clutch linkage thereby releasing the clutch.
To bleed or replace the slave cylinder on a 1989 Ford F-150 4x4, first, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported. If replacing, disconnect the hydraulic line from the slave cylinder and remove the mounting bolts to take it out. To bleed the new or existing slave cylinder, fill the clutch master cylinder with fluid, then have someone press the clutch pedal while you open the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder, allowing air and old fluid to escape. Close the valve before the pedal is released, and repeat until no air bubbles appear.
It depends on what kind of car you have. Try taking the pedal off and lubing the pivot and where the push rod mounts.
It needs to be lubricated where the pedal hangs off of the pivot point.
slave cylinder
4 nuts under the dash around the brake pedal
is it main cylinder or clutch slave sylinder? if is main then its behind there clutch pedal and if its a clttch slave ots ill be on gear box or near there. hi
After you have located the clutch slave cylinder, have someone depress the clutch pedal. You should see the piston of the slave cylinder extend somewhat. If it does not, either the slave cylinder is bad, or the master cylinder, or, there is not enough brake fluid in the system for it to operate properly. Check the level in the master cylinder. If the slave cylinder is leaking profusely, it is probably bad.
no
