Hi all,
I'm in the process of getting my TR3A back on the road.
It's been sitting for about 7 years and the hydraulics were pretty bad.
I rebuilt the calipers with stainless pistons without any problems and
working my way back, I pulled the clutch slave cylinder.
Needless to say it was worse than bad.
The open end where the push rod enters the cylinder was filled with a
crystalline
substance that I assume (there's that word) is a byproduct of leaking brake
fluid (fluif, in other tongues).
The big question is: How do I get the piston out? I have tried with
compressed air.
My guess is that it's filled with that same stuff as the open end was.
Any ideas?
Help!
TIA
John
