2008 Ford Escape Clutch Master Cylinder Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the Clutch Master Cylinder on 2008 Ford Escape?

  A: The Clutch Master Cylinder service and repair begins with disconnecting the clutch master cylinder hose from the brake master cylinder followed by plugging both parts to stop fluid leakage. The two clutch master cylinder nuts need removal at this point but you must tighten them to 23 Nm (17 lb-ft) when reinstalling them. The technician should disconnect the clutch push rod from the clutch master cylinder and disconnect the tube fitting from the clutch hydraulic fluid. They must then use plugs to prevent contamination. Bring back the clutch master cylinder according to removal steps while you should execute a system air bleed procedure. Since brake fluid causes damage to paint and plastic components you must react and wash away the spills right away with cold water. In the USA or Canada you can reach the appropriate service to obtain Ford/Motorcraft emergency medical information when consulting their MSDS documents to prevent serious personal injury to operators.
