I have removed my clutch slave cylinder as it was leaking fluid,my question is when I removed the slave cylinder the push rod came out as well,is there a set way this goes back on as there is a small plastic clip on the push rod with two clip claws on it,but feeling inside the bell housing there doesn't seem to be a place for it to fix on to,thanks in advance for any advice it is much appreciated.

this can be fitted into place,but your talking alot of patients.also when your fitting a new clutch at some point,its worth cable tie into place
 
It's a pain to get back in without taking the gearbox out.

On the clutch release fork, next to the dimple that the rounded end of the rod fits into, is a small rectangular hole. The plastic bit clips into that hole. It'll feel loose, and may even just fall right back out again if the plastic clip has worn or broken :(

Good luck!

is it essential to have this clip in ?

I've heard of people driving around without them for years. I'm not sure if it's possible for the rod to actually fall inside the bellhousing if it comes out of place. I guess it could make a mess in there if it did.
 
I will be fitting a new slave cylinder,so this should hold it fairly level as the rubber cup should be firm as it's new
 
So should I slide the push rod into the slave cylinder first,then bolt it on,or put the push rod in first and slide the slave cylinder on afterwards ?
 
OK will give it ago when the new slave cylinder arrives,thank you for your advice it's much appreciated
