[Mgs] 1975 MGB Clutch Hydraulics

[Mark Robinson <markrob@mindspring.com>]

I cut through the metal part of the clutch  flexible hose with a 4 inch 
cut off wheel just below the chassis bracket. I put a 6 point socket on 
the lower nut and an open wrench ended on the nut above the chassis 
bracket and used my impact driver. Unfortunately the open ended wrench 
slipped and  the steel pipe rotated and broke off. I don't think it was 
coming off anyway. At least I got the remains of the flexible hose off 
and the bracket is clear now.  It could have been a lot worse. I think 
the Kroil helped a lot. The threads look ok.

Removed 19. 21 and 22. Now to replace 33. I have to empty the garage and 
lower the MG. I will do that tomorrow when it won't rain on the stuff 
outside. I am glad the rusty stuff is removed. Nice to have the impact 
driver , 6 point sockets and powerful impact wrench. I used 20 mm 
sockets.Probably could have used an AF but 20mm fitted well
