Well since it was decently warmer today, went out to try to drop the motor back in but some bullshit stopped that from happening.... With the hood popped, I toke a look at the inside of the trans housing and noticed what looked to be a yellowish oil.... Turns out it was brake fluid, so I jumped in the car and pushed the clutch pedal down and it felt like steppin in warm sht... no pressure at all... Went back under the hood and then there was triple the amount of fluid... Turns out the slave is fucked and leaking.... Just my luck.... Now some of you may know that Ive had alot of shit happen to me with the old spec stage 3+ clutch slipping and not holding.... Guess this most likly was the probelm all along.... So know I gotta pick up another slave before I drop the motor in...
Anyway, threw some new oil in it.... Using this stuff

I didnt take pics of the slave.... Just pisses me off to much to look at it...

Did you tie clutch pedal up before you removed the hydraulic line?

Before taking off the slave?

 

[GrnBullitt08]

I pulled my trans and motor at once. When you remove the line you don want the clutch laying on the floor you need to tie it up. When you remove th slave it won't matter because you'll need to bleed the system anyway. I think your in need of a new one anyway... Prob for the better

mcleod clutches come with a brand new ford oem slave and their clutches are amazing i might add.

I see what your saying, having it up limits the amount of air that could possibly get in the system.... Yea, once I pushed the pedal in, i was fucked and ill have to bleed it.... I meen, it was leaking bad out of the front seal under the green dust shelid... Its all good, i have a idea to bleed that thing real easy... Just another buck spent after I just ordered the blow through piping/fittings.... Never ends man
