Question RB5 clutch cylinder

Hey guys

It looks like my clutch cylinder is sticking and not returning properly. I've managed to spray some spray lube in there and that's helped but looks like I'm gonna need a replacement or upgrade.

Is there a rebuild kit around or is a second hand one the only option? Can I fit a later model one as an upgrade that doesn't have the spring?

Thanks for any help

Looks like its my 'Slave' cylinder after doing some digging....

The piston seems to work very slowly but my pedal feels fine it's just the clutch seems very jerky and awkward when trying to drive smoothly.

Hi Trooper,

The slave cylinder is on the right and shaped a bit like a gun...



I'm still trying to decide if it has anything to do with the problem or wether its the clutch itself
