Replacing a clutch slave cylinder.

SEASHELL

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but my car broke down a week ago, was told the clutch was gone initially. I got the AA out to tow it home and the guy who came out said it was just the slave cylinder which was really easy to fix, he explained how to do it and it all made sense at the time. I bought the slave cylinder and have been looking online to try to find a tutorial of some sort to help me do it. I can't seem to find anything for my particular car - It's a 1999 mitsubishi carisma, 1.9 engine.
Is there any keywords I should be using when googling or can anyone point me in the direction of a site that could help. I think I need something with pictures:o:o or is there a book I could get
I don't have the money to pay a mechanic to fix it so have to do it myself
Any help would be greatly appreciated:)

Might tell you in the Haynes manual for your car?

Thanks to you both for the reply.
Hannah I don't have the money to go buy the Haynes manual at the moment . I've had a look on ebay and amazon for it it but it's not in stock . Thanks for the suggestion though.

Somech I joined the Mitsubishi forum yesterday but I think I have to wait to be approved or something to post so hopefully I can do try that today.

Probably a really stupid question but I've found quite a few tutorials for a mitsubishi Eclipse would that be any good to me or is each car totally different.

Generally all slaves are basically the same, you’ll have a cylindrical lump of metal with the clutch rod sticking out one end and a hydraulic pipe connection the other.

It will fit to the bell housing either by being bolted to it or by sliding into a tube cast as part of the bell housing and then be retained by a circlip, pin or bolt.

Get the new one and with that and the car in front of you I’m sure all will become clear.

Should be simple.

Loosen hydraulic connection.
Remove old cylinder.
Swap hose to new one.
Bolt in new one.

Bleed air out of the system by opening bleed nipple until fluid comes out.
