Thanks! I just got off the phone with a hydraulic repair shop, probably be 20 bucks the guy said.

So I've changed out the pressure plate, clutch, slave & master cylinder, and resurfaced the flywheel. Was driving around in the city on Saturday and the clutch pedal hit the floor and wouldn't come up. Got it towed to my house. Popped the hood and noticed the brake reservoir was low so I...

This just happened to me the same fvcking day! Coolant sprayed everywhere and I think it may have cause my Cam shaft sensor to go bad. Hopefully it will dry off. I got my Hose tree from Maxx for $216.00 with next day air! He has a great day. I'm getting mine in today.

Woah that is a mess ahahha. I got my next day aired from Maxx at Five Star ford for 216 bucks. If you took that 15 bucks and put it in the next day air with Maxx you would have had it for the same price and no clean up ;). He has a great deal on next day air. The coolant splashing throughout...

I heard that some poeple have tapped threads and put in their own nipples and that has worked... it didn't seem high pressure.

I just used needle nose vice grips on the clamps. worked fine.

I snapped that little tube off that goes to that hose lol. It also happened to me in the Jaguar S type I had before. They say it gets brittle over time. Is the gold anti freeze dex cool? I have a 2000 LS can I just prestone that says 'all makes and models' or do I need the good coolant?

Maxx is next day airing it for me for 216 (40 bucks shipping) :rolleyes: I need it though, cant drive the car without it.

Part # YW4Z-8B502-AA. The bleeder screw does not open! Whoever did the engine swap in this car before I bought it must of 'screwed' it up.;) I don't need the radiator and all the hoses that come with the 300+ kit from Ford. Is anyone parting out their V6 or has an extra one of these around...

She's driving again!

I have one being shipped overnight from a NJ area ford dealer. There were only 3 left in the country. One more in San Juan (LOL) and one in Cali. They are discontinued! From ford it was 80 bucks. the same exact part from jaguar is 280. I've seen a picture of the clutch master cylinder from jag...

Who is max?

Clutch master cylinder is done. Had a leak right on the boot. Anyone know if they can be rebuilt with a new kit? How do I decipher ford parts numbers? I know the clutch master cylinder is part #7A543 BUT i know that the full ford part #'s have this many digits : XXXX-7A543-AA. I imagine this...

Go to RealOEM.com. Find the selector seal for a 2000 323i build date 4/1999 with the m52. That is the correct part. You can find it on autohausaz.com

I installed the transmission and bled the brakes. When I went to bleed the clutch the pedal hit the floor and then it didn't come back up. It stayed this way. I even pumped the clutch 20 times before opening the bleeder and no fluid came out of the bleeder. I unattached the hydraulic line from...
