Hi all

My clutch cyl is losing fluid (second time in 15mths).

I can see where it has been slowly draining from between the master cyl and booster as the paint has peeled etc.

Also when I top the fluid up it turns dirty or black after awhile, the clutch operation seems to be ok though?

Last time I replaced the small rubber seal with no probs, but surely it can't be stuffed again can it? The piston rod is in good cond.

Any help appreciated

Had to do my seals recently too but still leaked, had to have it sleeved and re bored. Been good since

I found it easer to buy a new cylinder because my cyl kept leeking after fitting a new seal into it once i had fitted the new one it all stoped if my memory serves me rite it cost me $75.00 for the new one

Thats cheap cost me more to sleeve and bore it, Just under $200 from memory.

Yeah that sounds a lot easier, plus you know you have got a whole new cylinder as well.
The fluid keeps getting dirty as well so when I get back from the Coast i'll completely gravity bleed/flush the system. Plus i'll take a spare servo unit/master cyl with me just in case it poops itself.

Merry Xmas every one.
