Clutch Fluid
After driving rex for a little, I popped the hood just to check everything and noticed the clutch fluid had gone down considerably for just driving it over an hour. Where are the best places to check for fluid leaks? I want to be able to identify the leak asap when I get home, and was just wondering where I should check first.

the most common leak is from the salve cylinder. the seal on the piston shrinks and allows fluid to seep out. same for the clutch master cylinder. for that you'll see the seepage by looking at the piston on the master cylinder from inside of the vehicle. you will actually see the fluid seepage on the matting and or carpet.

replace the master cylinder or rebuild. up to you. you SHOULD replace both the master and the slave as well as the clutch hose. replace them all together so that a good part does not put stress on a worn part anc cause teh other to leak. that is the theory behind that thought.

I got 2 vids, one from a couple days ago, that one has the lights up, and the one from today, no lights up. Enjoy.
