Hi all,
I have a 1986 Saab 9000 Turbo with almost 300K miles. I (personally :) )replaced the clutch, slave, master etc about 2 years ago. All fine. I 've always has a slow haydraulic leak and a month ago I blew the metal/rubber clutch hose and replaced, bled, all fine - I'm driving and it has lots of clutch. Problem is I have a hydraulic leak I can't find.
I have examined the the hoses under the resevoir and the clutch hose I just replace - all dry. I pulled the plug from the cluch bell housing to see if fluid was leaking from slave - dry. Slave cylinder connections are dry. I don't see any obvious brake fluid leaks and the brake are high and tight.
I started thinking about the supply host from the reservoir to the clutch master cylinder this morning.
Any thoughts would really be appreciated - I was gone for 4 days and the resevoir was down an inch from the top.
thanks,
dave
