I reinstalled the OEM slave cylinder on a 2016 ST because the after market new slave cylinder leaked. It has 85k in it and I really wanted to change it but the OEM part is on back order here.
The clutch hose has the original correct grommet/o-ring installed - it kind of snaps on.
Problem: When I try to push the hose into the slave cylinder, it does not go fully in (and I pushed pretty hard). Without the o-ring it feels a bit loose.
as an additional annoyance, I have to fish out the o-ring after each try.
Is it supposed to require a lot of force to get the hose back in and seated?
TIA.
