clutch master cylinder.

Hi,

Yesterday i took my Westfield 1800 zetec for a ride and the clutch pedal was very smooth. Very strange. I took it to the mechanical and it is probably a master cylinder clutch's  licking. It might be replaced. Does anybody knows from which car , this cylinder comes? I took a look at the westfield online part shop but could'nt find.

Thank you for the answer and sorry about my english, I 'm french...

Cheers

Are you sure it's a hydraulic clutch? Most Westfields use cable clutches.

If it is a hydraulic clutch, to test the master cylinder, remove the hydraulic line and fit a bleed nipple directly to the master cylinder. Do it up, then press the clutch pedal. If it's rock solid, it's not leaking and you will need to investigate the slave cylinder.

If the pedal can be pressed down to the floor, even slowly, then the master cylinder is leaking. You should be able to get a seal repair kit from the manufacturer, who's name should be on the master cylinder cap somewhere.

Thanks a lot Blatman.

It is for sure a hydraulic one and I will test it like you said.
