Clutch Slave Cylinder: Description and Operation

CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER (2.7L T850 MODELS)

DESCRIPTION





2.7L equipped models that utilize the T850 transaxle (GTC Convertible) use a clutch slave cylinder to operate the release lever and bearing. The clutch slave cylinder fastens to the transaxle bellhousing (Fig. 20), and consists of a hydraulic piston and cylinder, seal, return spring, and integrated hydraulic quick connect fitting for ease of service.

OPERATION
When the clutch pedal is depressed, fluid pressurized by the clutch master cylinder pushes the slave cylinder piston, extending the push rod and operating the clutch release lever and bearing.
