True Classic
newer slave failed recently, piston so loose I could easily shake it out.
Swapped in the old one, it too failed recently. Both bores looks good.
"old" one had rusty crap in it, the newer one's bore looks pristine, the pistons are very different though.
I ordered some seals from Fiatsplus, thinking of putting new seal on older piston as it seems "rebuildable".
Remove clip, spring old seal, replace, redo. The "outer" seal is less critical I would think, just a dirt stopper? I can always buy a new slave as they are cheap enough but it's kinda interesting.
old slave (note crud)
old piston, note clip and spring
"newer" slave
"newer" piston
page from manual, that matches my "older" one, better? just different? hmmmm
