Clutch Fork Lubrication

[Synthesis]

Just an FYI for those who are working on their clutch or clutch slave:

Do not substitute Urea Grease in the clutch fork cup for the molybdenum disulfide called out in the manual....
I did, and I now have a terrible squeak coming from the clutch fork.

I'm going to have to remove the slave cyl and put some molykote in there when i'm under the car to change the oil.

Hope this saves somebody a headache (luckily it's a minor headache).

There are two places in the service manual about the cup for the fork being lubed. One says MD, one does not. I can only say I have never had an issue using Urea Grease in this area. Typically, squeaks are due to a location being dry. Let us know what you find.

cool,

it should be a quick job.

good luck with it. btw, when you put the slave back on, make sure the rod its in the retaining dip in the clutch fork
