Gents,
Today I installed a new slave cylinder and I noticed that the spring comes close or is right against the rubber boot on the the slave cylinder. Is this correct? I have the spring attaching at the end of the clutch fork (near the pin joint attaching the slave cylinder rod) and the other end attaches to a bracket that attaches to the lower bolt used to mount the slave cylinder. Also, how much spring tension should there be when the clutch pedal is NOT pushed in? Finally, the line that runs from my clutch master cylinder to the slave cylinder has a loop in it right before it bends down and goes vertical to the slave cylinder. Is this correct? I'm assuming the loop is there to help get rid of air when bleeding the system. I've never seen this loop before on other hydraulic clutch systems and wonder if it's really needed.
Thanks as always for your advice
