    Clutch slave

    Just a quick question i replaced my MC since it started to leak. Then dot 4 started leaking at the trans right where the fly wheel is. Is this my clutch slave? I have pressure but as soon as all the fluid is out i lose it. I dont want to start replacing parts i really dont need to.


    Thanks !!!

    Sounds like it's leaking from the slave. Make sure the bleeder screw is tight on the slave, its a 6 or 7mm bleeder.

      Yes i also used a new screw just incase. But why would the fluid be coming out of the fly wheel ?

        probably the seals around the slave pushrod are bad. It will leak brake fluid inside the bell housing.

                yeah do it yourself its not hard. its just bleeding it if you are on your own, though y'all in LHD cars can even probably do that yourself
