I have recently had a loss of a lot of hydraulic fluid in my 85 C900 Turbo. Knowing that my clutch often hit the floor, I knew it had to be my clutch master cylinder. I had it replaced about 3 weeks ago, however.. I'm still losing a lot of fluid.(I have to fill the brake fluid resevoir about once every week to 10 days.) also, my clutch will engage if I keep the pedal pressed too long. I traced down the leak, as I found a point where the main line comes to a joint of sorts. The line then continues on to the clutch slave cylinder. This joint is about 2.5-3 inches to the left of the bleeder valve for the clutch slave cylinder. I'm wondering what I need to do to get rid of this leak? Can it be sealed up? How can I fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! -LC
