How To Install Clutch Master Cylinder

I narrated the pictures to reflect steps and procedures. Just a quick overview.

Try and do this during daylight.

Push seat all the way back, get under and look for cotter pin holding clutch rod to pedal. Pull pin out and slide bolt that holds bracket in place. Next, remove the 2 bolts that secure master cylinder to firewall. You're done inside the car.

Under the hood.

Squeeze clip securing tubing to nipple on brake/clutch fluid reservoir. Pull off tubing. Loosen banjo bolt on clutch master cylinder w/ 17mm Closed end wrench. Now begin wiggling and maneuvering master cylinder from firewall. Once out remove banjo bolt from master cylinder(be careful not to lose copper washers) Swap out parts that didn't come with your new master cylinder(gasket/sleeve)

Now reverse process to put the new master cylinder back in.

Bleed clutch system once done.

See pictures below for visual Aid.

What did you do to keep the fluid in the brake master cylinder? So it doesn't drip out I mean. And what symptoms dod you have of a faulty cylinder? Im having a clutch dragging issue.
