Clutch Slave Seal, about face!!!

[JoBrCo]

OK don't shoot me guys, cause I have an excuse.  I removed it about 5 years ago, and forgot in which direction it faces.

In which direction on the clutch slave piston does the cup of the seal face? Towards the spring (fluid input), or towards the dirt seal (clutch rod)?

And no, all the exploded views are crap, it looks like a 2nd grader drew them.

Signed, anonymous...

You can't see me, you don't know who I am, some other dummy did this stupid crap.

"The piston seal go's on first, gently! stretch it over the piston, hollow/concave/ cupped whatever, bit goes to the back, i.e. towards the spring. Get this wrong and the first time you pull the clutch the fluid will casually wander past the seal and cause chaos throughout the universe, you've been warned."

Ha ha ha ha...  Are you familiar with a NATOPS manual George?  The one for the P3-C Orion was as large/thick as a telephone book for a serious metropolis, at least 3 inch's thick.  We used to call it, "The Giant Blue Sleeping Pill," because just looking at it's blue cover, one started to yawn, (sailors loved their coffee), their eyelids getting heavier by the second.  I've never read anything as dry as a NATOPS manual. Of course it was filled with all kinds of great information, for an "Airedale, Scope Dope," such as I was!    (<-USN Jargon)

I really liked the Navy jargon for a submariner; (Bubblehead!)

P.S. The slave is working fine, thanks again.  The master is another thing entirely, but I've got a rebuild kit on the way.

Yeah, ESPECIALLY if you end up BUNKING WITH one of `em!  

Don't fall for the "hot bunking" ruse, particularly since there are TWO BEDS!

Yes on the NATOPS, VP 0617 out of Mugu and later VP 69 out of Whidbey.  Second Mech.  Multi service also spent time as a flying crew chief in OH-58's Bell Jet Rangers. Spent most of my military around doing what was fun in aviation.  Retired form The Idaho Air Guard RF-4's, F-4C's, A-10's and C-130's. Lots of us on here are ex military.  You name it and someone in the group here has probably been there done that, military and civilian that's what makes this forum such a great resource for information.  I wish the whole world would get along as well as everyone in this forum.  Maybe everyone should own an FJ, naw... just wouldn't work... They would all want red and white ones...

Just rang the bell so everyone can now have a digital beer    How about and FJ coin ?

Bubbleheads have standards too...  the saying was "it's only gay in port" and we're definitely in port here gentlemen.  Onboard a dingy on the pool might be a different story...

I personally liked being labeled a "Squid" much better than a "Bubblehead"...  although the latter certainly describes my massive noggin accurately.

My all time favorite was referring to any of the surface sailors as "Targets"...  really pissed off the ASW specialists, but they knew it was true.

We also called the seagoing female a "2 legged sailor"...

"Targets"  yes,  in a P-3 I was always aware of who was going to come out ahead in a shooting war with subs.  It was something you didn't dwell on to much  .  Safer on an FJ..

[JoBrCo]

It wasn't my aircraft, sub, ship, weapon system, or nuclear weapon, thus bears no reflection on me, just a job, a crap shoot, a roll of the dice.  The reason? Inexperience, naivete, machismo, ignorance; being bought and sold to the tune of, so called, civilization; bound by the legacy of opportunistic, so called, leaders, actually of selfish agenda. It speaks loudly that it stuck; the fear of death, the motivator!

I know the answer to the riddle of the men of MAD, the absolute perspective, being human with pants down around ankles, the bravery of being out of range.  Thus I dare not play the game of fools, instead amazed at the miracle of 'all' life, amid the backdrop of infinity.

Fear, the truth of the matter!
Death, the great equalizer!
