clutch fluid on my foot rest???

[Insidious Surmiser]

so earlier when i was pulling out of a gas station, my clutch suddenly went dead, so i pulled into a parking lot, and i depressed the clutch manually (pulled it back up w/ my had) and i pushed it in again w/ my foot a few times, and fluid was dripping on my foot rest. So i checked the resivior and there was still some in it, but I added more, and it was fine after that and i drove it home. anyone know wtf happened???

sounds like fun :nono:, will look into it , it was just kinda peculiar that it was on my foot rest, thanks for the input though

if you don't change it soon it will be more than just on your foot rest.

If you're getting fluid on your foot rest, it's just waiting to blow up. Do it now, so you don't have it explode on you like my old one! It's an easy swap, and it's fairly cheap. No point in making your life miserable because you put it off...

the reason for putting it off is other expenses right now :-/ unfortunately, if i had the money, i'd be replacing it right now

 

[Squid699]

i hope you have AAA

I think I got mine for less then 40 bucks cheap in my book.

they are a real pain in the butt to change...I basically had to stand on my head...good luck
