  Q: How to remove and replace the clutch slave cylinder on Ford Fusion?

  A:

  After reading the product label's cautions you must seek medical attention before starting the clutch slave cylinder replacement process. In the USA or Canada, for Ford/Motorcraft products, call 1-800-959-3673. Applying any fluid other than DOT 3 brake fluid approved for motor vehicles will damage brake components permanently until they become inoperable. No matter how sensitive they are to touch, brake fluid presents injuries to painted and plastic surfaces and requires quick water cleaning after any spill. While performing brake bleeding keep the brake master cylinder reservoir supplied with brake fluid from the specified brake fluid reservoir to prevent dry out and avoid using drained hydraulic system fluid. Charging air into the hydraulic system through disconnection becomes responsible for a soft-braking pedal which needs system bleeding either manually or through pressure equipment. Start the process by evacuating brake fluid through a suitable tool until reaching just below the clutch reservoir hose and then untether the clutch slave cylinder-to-Clutch Master Cylinder line. Two bolts block the path to removing the clutch slave cylinder allowing you to pull it out. After reverse installation fit the bolts to 19 Nm (14 ft. lbs.) and add small grease at the end of the slave cylinder push rod before bleeding the system.
