Slave cylinder stuck in tranie?

[Denis]

  It s a good procedure , i did , hard way,,,, hands ouchhhh couple time.
  As he said penetreting oil needed, wait , knock again, be careful , dont damage the tranny case.

  To remoove the pin i used a graded wood screw and an hammer...the slave is hard to reach so....be patient , as you saw :-)

  Once the slave was twisting i put bach the hose and use it to grap tha slave qith hands to twist and get out.

    Geeze, I happen to think that getting your hand whacked by a hammer or
    crow bar builds character (and scar tissue)!!
