Chris,
Your Clutch Slave Cyl is mounted right above your Left Foot.
I suspect that drip could have been that wonderful smelling
brake fluid dripping out the slave. Thats a little premature
though. IT should go to 150k just fine. BUt you never know.
Could just be a leaky connection that drips once a month and
you just happened to notice it after 4 years. :-) Trying to
think positive. :-)
