MV6 Clutch pipe - engine removal
« on: 07 December 2009, 07:56:35 »

While removing the engine & gearbox in MV6 what is the correct way of dis-connecting the hydraulic clutch pipe? I have traced the flexi pipe to the connector on the bulkhead but am unsure how to undo it and how to plug it to stop losing any fluid?

There is an L shaped sliding clip once removed the pipe just slides apart.

More of a U shape iirc, but a simple bit of bent springy wire that sits in a groove around the connector. Finger nail or small screwdriver to get it out then twist the flexipipe slightly and it should pull out.
Access is (as usual) less than optimum
