Under the fuse box is just the hydraulic line that runs from the resivour to the aluminum block on the trans, and then to the slave cylinder. There is a retaining clip in that, but no pin.

I guess it is different than what I had in my other car. My slave cylinder pushed my clutch lever with a pin, i guess you would call it a small rod though. I had the rod slip off the lever and it became very hard to push down the pedal and it would hardly work. So how does the ss/sc slave cylinder engauge the clutch, and is it possible for the same thing to happen?

My clutch is at 34k miles and counting, still holding like a champ. Female driven from day one - only on rare occasions of drunkenness has a male driven my car...so there goes that theory...
