It appears my clutch master cylinder went out. I've replaced the slave cylinder already, so that leaves the MC which I believe is back-bleeding; can somebody point me in the direction of where I might find removal instructions? Or give me a rundown on how to remove the MC? I'm picking up a new one today and intend/hope to install it tomorrow.

Thanks!

First, undo the hard line on the engine bay side of the master cylinder (10mm). Use a flare wrench if you can.

Then, take a flashlight with you and lay in the footwell on your back with your head at the pedals.

There's a pushrod that comes out of the firewall (its part of the master cyl) and connects to the pedal. Take off the clip that holds in the pin at the pedal and undo it from the pedal.

Look at the clutch pedal bracket and you'll see two (12 or 14mm, I can't remember) nuts right behind the pedal on either side of the push rod. Then follow the bracket way up and there's another nut of the same size. I believe there is another one at the bottom but I can't remember since I think I found it while doing Tina's (ILuvMyCelica95) but mine (this is Stef/hurley97, not batman) doesn't have the bottom one.

Then you can pull out the clutch master cylinder.
