So, while I was in the process of removing a broken starter bolt and replacing the missing starter bracket on the Ole Crashwagon, I had to remove the slave cylinder from the bellhousing so I could drop out the starter.
I guess when I reassembled it, I didn't have something aligned properly and had an overly stiff clutch pedal... until it dropped to the floor. Due, in no small part, to the effort with which I was 'persuading' it to go in that direction.
ANYWHO, I'm going to have to replace the master and slave now. Looks to me like the lines are held in place by a flared end, with a roll-key/pin to keep them against the seal, and prevent them from backing out.
The new parts pack has a roll-pin, a seal, and a cotter key. There doesn't appear to be anywhere obvious to me to use the cotter key except inside of the roll key as a keeper.
I was just hoping someone had some insight, and could maybe verify if that's where it is supposed to go. Napa Parts guy wasn't much help...
Thanks!
Also, thanks to Jim, Lee, and the others for compiling the 6.2L troubleshooting guides! They helped immensely in finding the right starter parts.
