[s-cars] 92 Dead clutch pedal

[Theodore Chen]

There was a mid-year change in the part for the 92 S4 clutch master cylinder.  Early 92s used the same part as the 200.  Later ones have a different part number.  I think the change happened after 4/92 builds, but don t quote me on that.  As far as I can tell, the main difference is in the placement of the port on the side of the MC.  Mine uses the early one, which I easily verified by looking at it in situ.  It s pretty easy for you to check the part number on the one in your car.
