Gaining access to the slave cylinder is one of the few areas our Triumphs were pretty well designed. While you could technically get to it from under the car, it's more comfortable (and drier!) to do so by removing the transmission tunnel cover. This is held in place by a bunch of screws around the perimeter and a few snaps. You'll need to remove the radio and the "H" bracket assembly for the dash as well as the transmission shifter knob. The boot should ideally be attached to the cover, but who knows what is there after twenty plus years, right?
The slave cylinders do go out over time. If someone has used DOT 3 brake fluid in the car's lifetime, then the life of those seals in the clutch master and slave cylinders are shot. Typically if the slave cylinder is leaking, it's a good sign to either rebuild or replace both the clutch slave and clutch master cylinders. They aren't expensive and the peace of mind is worth it. -Vegaman Dan --------------------- This message has been sent by Dan Canaan, aka Flinthoof.
