Re: Clutch Master Cylinder

I've experienced both slave and master failures, though at separate times.
My master failure ('86 SPG) was all at once without advance warning. When
depressing the clutch you had just about a second before it re-engaged
itself! Unfortunately, mine failed as I was trying to leave a baseball
game so I was stuck in parking lot traffic. I made it home, but it was
dicey (1st, move 2 feet, neutral, first, neutral, etc).
My slave failure ('84 900) manifested as a clutch pedal engaging nearer
and nearer to the floor, over a long period of time until it would barely
disengage the clutch at all. Pumping the pedal gave minimal improvement.
Changing the slave cylinder requires removing the clutch and I can't
imagine not doing a new clutch assembly while you're in there.
