Update:
I installed the slave cylinder (The nut that attaches the hydraulic line is 12 mm. This is frustrating in such a tight spot). Tuff install but can be done. Leverage is minimal. I felt like a weakling after getting the slave lined up and bolted down. Key (for me) is to put white lithium grease all over the bellows as well as the tip and mental/ physical strength :-)
Initially gears 2-6 went into gear very roughly then wouldn't engage thereafter. Again, the gears shifted fine with the car off. Obviously I'm not happy with the results. Anything else I can do or check before the clutch has to be inspected?? If anyone has any insight on what is occurring since the new slave cylinder didn't fix the problem it would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
