2005 Ford Escape Clutch Slave Cylinder Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the clutch slave cylinder on 2005 Ford Escape?

  A: Starting the clutch slave cylinder service process requires taking out the transaxle. Proceed by disconnecting the clutch slave cylinder from its adapter for the clutch hydraulic fluid tube and then extract all three bolts that maintain the clutch slave cylinder. Always tighten new or repaired clutch slave cylinder bolts to 12 Nm or 9 ft. lbs. when performing the installation. Perform air-bleeding on the system after completing the installation and following the removal steps in reverse order. Attention must be paid when working with brake fluid because its polyglycol ethers and polyglycols components can trigger skin irritation. Always keep your eyes away from the surface and perform complete hand cleaning right after contact with this substance. Contact with your eyes requires immediate running water flush for 15 minutes then you should consult a doctor for persistent irritation. Ingesting brake fluid requires drinking water followed by vomiting induction which should be followed by immediate medical assistance. Wash down paint and plastic surface contaminants right away with water since brake fluid poses a danger to these materials.
