Leaking clutch m/c
I've just reassembled things after pulling the drivers knee panel - yes the
clutch m/c is leaking, there is fluid on the bracket and a trace is running
down to the clutch pedal.
Now that I think about it, at the begining of the summer there was a sudden
drop in fluid level and I took off the pedal rubbers a few months ago there
was some dampness behind the clutch, but as I couldnt see where it had come
from I put it down to some oil that had been used to ease the fitting of them,
so it has been leaking for some time.
Til this happened, my plan for next weekend was to replace the clutch fluid
reservoir which has cracked at the bracket, looks like the job is a bit bigger
now.
I know that there are some BTDT's on the list (hint, hint, Phil), so any
advice? I assume that the clutch will need bleeding after this, so how do I go
about it?
