I forgot to suggest something else (very minor) for your rebuild of the
Clutch hydraulics...

Get rid of those rotten cotter pins!  (securing the clevis pin to the yoke
at the pedal and at the clutch drop-arm.)  Replace them with a standard
"hitch pin" of the appropriate size... these are $.05 bits of hardware
available just about anywhere... and you'll never have to mess with those
cotter pins again!  (you're supposed to replace the cotter pins, anyway)
The hitch pin is reusable, cotter pins are not, and the hitch pins pull out
super-easy, and snap back into position just as easily.  Makes the job go a
lot faster in the future!
