Check the hose between the master and slave cylinders.. Posted by TonyJ [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: help! mystery clutch leak, Micah Casteel, Sat, 8 Oct 2005 14:15:13 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
see my recent post:
"Our 97 had a similar problem recently (see "TonyJ " posts). It turned out to have been the hi-pressure hose between the master and slave. It squirted brake fluid on top of the transaxle and front suspension. At least the transaxle doesn't need to come out! Between my son (AndyJ) and I, we have taken 5 9000 5-speeds to over 750K total miles without ever having to change a clutch or slave cylinder, just 2 master cylinders and now, a hose."
In your case, the hose may be just ready to fail completely. Have someone work the clutch, depressing it rapidly, while you watch the hose or hold your hand around it. Good Luck.
