Anybody recognise this clutch slave cylinder

Hi All

Does anybody recognise this clutch slave cylinder - it's on my car but I don't know the history- it wasn't new but it was lying around! I need to change it urgently (tomorrow!) but don't know what to order. I thought it was metro but the Metro one that's sitting in the motor factors isn't the same.

It's Girling and 7/8".

Regards

Thanks TKS

The clutch pedal went to the floor once when it was on the rolling road last time. The master cylinder is new, the hose line is new and the clutch arm on the R1 didn't move so I can only assume it's the slave cylinder at fault.

Looks like it is just shotout cant it?

take away the grommet and make a pic.

i would talk deff to girlin supliers.

they will recognise it and be able to send you a recondition kit anyway just looks like your clutch stop broke away (piston out of the cilinder)...

Tks

No, the piston is still in the cylinder - I've just removed the rubber so that you can see the full body.

It looks like a MGB type

I was going to say MGB as well

However slave cylinders tend to fail by leaking fluid away while the vehicle is sitting parked not the way you described.

Thanks Guys

It's a Ford part - just been to the motor factors (Bob Fowden - always great help and good prices!) and the part number is definitely Ford. They can't get the whole slave cylinder but will get me a repair kit by 1 pm today!
