As a starter I would check vaccum pipes, perishing or cracks etc. Or even loose.

Job done, I hope, left seats in and struggled every bit of the way to replace cylinder. Filled reservoir and nipped up the connector line at the master cylinder between this and slave end after fluid seeped out.

Thank you, dont think my seats are standard

Thanks Rob, will have another look.

Still trying to get seat out with no joy, please see images of bolts I think need removing in order to get seat out.

thanks, I will, bad back allowing. I think he mentioned the seat because although it does move back its restricted because of the appliances, cooker etc behind it.

Thanks, managed to prise it off but possibly damaged the end of the hose, but looks as if enough left to trim and refit.

Thanks will give that a go

Hi all further to above how can the hose be removed from reservoir to clutch master, tried at reservoir but v tight and not moving, would like to remove it so there is more room at the clutch master cylinder for removal.
