Finally put my 87 9000t back on the road. Replace the down pipe from the turbo after sawswalling for an hour on the tight elbow to make room for grinding the three nuts off. Replace all 3 studs off the turbo. When I went to push on the clutch the pedal was dead. After replacing the faulty, leaking clutch master cylinder, the engine will slip the clutch in 4th and 5th gear. I don't see any oil leaking at the bell housing and brake fluid is correct level. Will the old rubber line cause the fluid not to release the clutch all the way? Another question has to do with a loose end vacuum hose I found behind the flase bulkhead wall after replacing the clutch master. The throttle body has 3 vacuum ports coming from it. Distributor vacuum, fuel pressure regulator vacuum and the 3rd vacuum hose with loose end connection was plugged inside and slipped behind the flase blukhead. Anyone tell me when the 3rd hose goes. I also had NO boost gauge vacuum, but found out the vacuum hose connect for the gauge supply had split. It's been 3 years off the road so I'm a bit slow on memory of the old gal. Still has the same 9000 turbo awesomeness.
