QUESTION: got to replace slave cylinder, hydraulic line was not only problem. can u tell me step by step how to remove n install?  thanks

Answer
Its best to replace all 3 at the same time,master/slave and hose.Remove all 3 parts and refit new ones.Fill master with fluid and pump the clutch.You can use a friend or a single bleed kit which can be bought at the parts store.Give it about 10 pumps in and out all the way(hold pedal down after 10 pumps) then open the bleeder on the slave.While holding pedal to the floor,tighten bleed screw and repeat until you have a solid clutch pedal with all air bled out.Do not let master get empty whilst doing this so keep it topped up.
