Default Disconnection MC line from t56

How do I remove The master cylinder line from the tranny ? I can figure it out, I have never seen a setup like that before...

You'll need to crack the bleeder to relieve pressure, then use two flat head screw drivers to push opposite sides of the while sleeve in toward the slave. I had to push with a little bit of force. You'll notice the line move in a tad and then it should pull right out.

I never had to cack the bleeder to get mine off. Just had to use the flathead screwdrivers... it wasn't too bad at all.

i used one of the adjustable rings like the one u use to tighten the lid or the bellows to the maf but it was small i cut off the flat head screw and cut it to where it would fit inside the mc line. pushed it in with a screwdriver from both sides, then you just shake the like and it pops off

its actually a very nice design... they just did a **** job telling you what to do (WTF is with the guy saying you need to loosen the bleeder???)



theres a white plastic ring that goes around the connector... push it in using a small screwdriver or pick.... its easier if you push in lightly on the connector.

then just pull it out... notice it doesnt leak when disconnected.



to re-install, just push it together until it clicks.

Most of the time it comes right out, sometimes they are a pain. Kent Moore makes a special tool to disconnect it. I could'nt find it at my work so my pocket screw driver worked good
