Got it. Can't wait to see the new look.

I'll have to replace the rubber hydraulic hose going from the actuator to hard line... the metal fitting at the ends of the hose were totally corroded which is where it failed. I'll pick up a replacement tomorrow. Anyone know the bleeding procedure for the clutch? Thanks!

I have a '96 Pathy with a manual transmission. Today the clutch went to the floor as I was trying to shift gears... and did not return. Luckily the Pathy was in a useful gear and I was close to home... the clutch was still engaged so I made it home without stopping. It's now up on jackstands, and I can see a hose hanging down... that must be the hydraulic line to the clutch actuator cylinder. The end attaching to the actuator is hanging free, so it's no wonder the pedal went to the floor. First task will be to reattach the hose and bleed the system... I should have that done tonight or by latest tomorrow. But I'm wondering if anyone has ever had a problem with the actuator cylinder... could it be bad? If it's stuck, and you pushed the pedal, it's possible to overpressure the line causing it to come loose... anyone ever heard of a stuck actuator? Is there something else that could be wrong? Let me know your experiences. Thanks in advance!!! I'll let you know what I find out tonight as I'm laying on the cold garage floor!

snosnk, that's it, perfect description. It wasn't a problem at all to get at or remove/replace. It took 5 minutes to complete. Thanks again for the help.

The owners manual has nothing on replacing the PCV valve. I have the replacement part sitting here, but as I look into the engine bay I see nothing that looks like the part in the box. Anyone have a pic or a good description of where the PCV valve is? Thanks. Jeff
