Let Brake/Clutch Fluid get too low, How do I take care of it? 700 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be fixit2002 on  Mon Oct 20 07:12 CST 2008 [RELATED]

Filling the clutch slave cylinder is very tricky because the clutch fluid resevoir wall is not much higher than the max line on the brake resevoir. It only takes one or two pumps on the clutch peddle and you'll start sucking air and creat the same problem all over again. Keep a close eye on it and you shouldn't have any problem but it sounds like you've got a clutch fluid leak that needs quick attention. Master or slave cylinder? If you want to keep the car much longer I'd suggest doing both.
