Slave cylinder ground
The wire that grounds the slave cylinder on my 91 turbo broke. (it's the wire that has a resistor with a metal loop that goes under the bolt for the slave cylinder onto the bell housing and the other end has a white connector.) The wire broke off at the resistor and looks unsolderable. Is this a easy part to find? Thoughts?

I believe you're talking about this? Its an Oil Sender Condenser. The little wire is about to break off of mine too.

It is the Condenser (capacitor) for the Oil Pressure Sender. It is needed to protect the oil pressure gauge from burning out in the event of sender failure, and for smoothing any erratic pluses from the sender.
