2008 Ford Mustang Clutch Master Cylinder Parts Q&A

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

  A: The Clutch Master Cylinder requires service which starts with removing the brake pedal and bracket assembly first. First disconnect the clutch pedal through removing the retaining clip from its pin and removing the two clutch master cylinder bolts before separating the cylinder from the pedal while tightening the bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in) upon putting them back. The procedure for reinstalling includes detachment of the reservoir hose from the clutch master cylinder followed by installation of new hose clamps on the reservoir hose before proceeding with reverse removal steps. The hydraulic assembly of the clutch requires bleeding which should be followed by filling the fluid reservoir to its specified levels. A proper check of clutch operation should be performed as the last step. Brake fluid poses a risk to painted materials and plastic components so immediate cold water washing protects the surfaces from damage. Those requiring emergency medical information about Ford/Motorcraft products in the USA or Canada should call 1-800-959-3673 and refer to the MSDS available if present to avoid serious personal injury while following these instructions.
