It is not that hard to replace the master clutch cylinder. You will have
to remove the rubber boot at the end of the cylinder, disconnect the
clutch pedel lever from the push rod, disconnect the clutch hose at the
top of the cylinder, and undo the 2 bolts holding the cylinder to the
bracket.
Thats all, the clutch cylinder is out. I think like most kits you will have
to reuse your old push rod. The hardest part for me was removing the
replacing the rubber boot. Also, since you have everything out you should
consider switching your fluid to DOT5. That is what I've done when I
replaced mine about 4 years ago. I still flush it every two years but
unlike the brake fluid (I use LMA DOT4) it is still clear when I do
the flushing. Also, maybe I was just lucky but I didn't have any problems
bleeding the system after I replaced the master clutch cylinder with DOT 5.
PS: Since your cylinder was leaking you should remove the bracket and paint
the area under the cylinder.
