Managed to move 100ml of brake fluid through a new clutch slave cylinder on my 1987 Fiat X1/9 last night (2 person job and I can only ask my gf to pick up and put down the clutch pedal for so long). Still no back pressure on my clutch, but the good news is I inspected the master cylinder prior to starting my bleed with the new slave and hose, and that looks good, which is great news, because that's the much harder cylinder to replace. Going to get back at it after work, really hoping that I am able to get the clutch back soon, 80* and sunny here today.
My new 1996 Mazda truck failed inspection yesterday for the rusty leaf spring mounts
so I think I'm going to put historic tags on it and not worry about using for anything other than offroading up to water and feed by pigs. I've got my van for pulling the landscape trailer the few times I use it. I don't weld, unfortunately, so I can't fix that cheaply.
The BRZ is sitting with the power steering problem too, so not been a good few weeks for me car-wise, but trying to work my way through each of them and find a good resolution without breaking the bank. Sucks to have issues with more than one vehicle at a time, that's for sure.
Anyways, some Fiat pics attached for fun (red one is mine, fluid was what was bled last night).
