Thanks for your suggestions. Cleaning this engine down would be an all day affair, we are talking a half inch to 3/4 inch thick sludge etc but I guess it’s going to have to happen anyway if im going to start tearing the engine down. I dont want any of that stuff getting into places it shouldnt be.

I’ll def use the soap and water trick, used it many times for bike tubes etc I dont know why I didnt think of that. Little soap wouldnt hurt this thing anyways lol.

I will report back my findings for anyone else who is facing this issue. I’ll also grab some pics of the underneath of this filthy monster.

Cheers!

Oh it did but as I said I could barely see anything, and the engine is filthy. It wasnt leaking anywhere else so I assumed what I saw coming from that area was coming from there.

Thanks bud!

Thanks for your reply Eric & Dreamer.

Ok I will replace the slave, and yes the slave and release bearing are one unit for this set up. Sadly it doesnt come in the clutch set but the set does come with the Pressure plate, disc, pilot bearing, alignment tool, and insert.

It’s still not a bad price for parts (under 200 bucks) , considering I am doing it myself (thanks to your clutch videos and my Haynes manual lol). I do know it’ll be easier than that 02 focus you did.

Again thanks for your time.
