Eagle Talon 95: Master Cylinder Replacement?
Master is leaking on the pedal side where push rod comes out to the pedal setup. Was hoping it was just a seal but it's all one piece, so give me tips on putting in a new one myself and things not to do or look out for while doing. One thing I'm a little leary of is dealing with the lines from reservoir and line exiting master in this process.
This is for the clutch master cylinder not brakes
Mark the clutch pedal assembly seems fine and intact and even the master cylinder works great or better put not effecting the clutching and changing gears at all unless I let dot 3 fluid get too low and air enters after master leaked until it is empty.
I will though recheck the clutch pedal assembly and may be leading to the demise of the master. THe warped hole of pushrod is odd. Good point

It's easy. Check clutch pedal for wear (And before I get flamed by some DIMWIT saying there's no such thing, the fluid lever gets worn at the pedal shaft., causing insufficient clutch throw)
JNZ Tuning carries clutch pedal rebuild kits.
Road Race Engineering carries the clutch braided steel line.

If the clutch master cylinder is leaking fluid, you have a bad clutch master cylinder, not worn pedal linkage!
When you install the new master, I would also replace the slave cylinder on the transmission, they usually go first and it probably will fail soon. Have a friend help you bleed the air from the system, they will have to use there hand to push and pull the clutch pedal back until you get pressure. You also need to have about 1/8th to 1/4th inch of free play between the push rod and the master cylinder piston. If you don't have any free play the clutch will not engage completely when you press the clutch pedal frequently in city traffic and that will wear out the clutch disc prematurely.
