Im stuck trying to replace my clutch master cylinder because the hydraulic line connected to it doesnt want to come off. I cant use a flare-nut wrench because the line is just round at the end, no way of gripping it? Any idea how to get these lines off? It would be nice ot be not have to take the bus again to work tomorrow..haha

 

there should be a cotter pin I think holding the line into the clutch MC.

Should be #3 in the diagram below

 

That is correct. It should come out with a little effert, but going back in is a different story. Its pretty hard to get the cotter pin back in. But be patient it will go back in.

 

Thanks for the replies guys. I already had the cotter pin out but the line is still in there tight. The slave cylinder has the same connection WITHOUT the cotter pin, and it's firmly in there too, so I'm still trying to figure out how these come out?

 

sorry to bring this thread back after so many years, but I'm experiencing the same problem on my accord. How did you get yours out?

 

can you take some clear pics ? It would be best to see what you got going on

 

As the others stated there is a "roll pin" holding the line in

 

What kind of idiot engineer puts a roll pin there ?

 

A honda one
