This video shows the replacement of the clutch, flywheel, master cylinder and slave cylinder on a 1998 Mazda B2500 pickup.Upon initial inspection, the clutch master cylinder reservoir was empty which led to the inspection of the slave cylinder which was visibly oily and obviously leaking and in need of replacement. While inspecting the slave it was also noticed that the self adjusting mechanism was at the end of its adjustment which indicated that the disc was worn down and in need of replacement.
While the clutch in this vehicle is pretty standard (other than the factory self adjustment mechanism on the cover), the hydraulic system on this series of vehicle proves to be quite challenging for most mechanics and do-it-yourself folks alike. The things covered in this video are common to many years of the Mazda B-Series and Ford Ranger pickups.
