Lt77 slave cylinder

marwell · Jul 16, 2017

hi there , can anyone give me some help , trying to unscrew the bleeding bolt of the clutch slave cylinder on my 200tdi but I have no space to work, is it possible to do without having to remove the exhaust pipe??

No need to remove pipe. Get underneath and fit a spanner or try a few different shape spanners until one fits. You may have a modified exhaust that is in the way.

Use a socket (with extensions if needed) to crack it off. Then a ring spanner.

Some of the conversions can be difficult. Maybe the heatshield is in the way. You could always remove that for access.

I used a socket with various extensions so that I could find a point where I could turn the ratchet handle. Once the bolt is broken off, a normal spanner works.

On mine (converted disco 200tdi) I need to use a UJ joint as well as a very long extension on for the socket but can then remove and replace the whole thing using a ratchet rather than spanners.
