Clutch goes to the floor and fluid is everywhere....Inside the car ?

had an incident kind of like "Rocketguy13" But a little different too.

I just driving along, Not hard...and I go to shift into 2nd gear and the clutch pedal goes to the floor and stays there..I had to manually put my foot behind it to bring it back up.

I pumped it up and drove it very carefully home.
I checked the lines, slave and master cylinder no leakage..But when I checked out the clutch pedal I found a lot of fluid inside the car..The carpet and floor mat were soaked.

Will a new clutch master cylinder reservoir fix this ?

3rd vote for clutch master.

You're lucky. My 85 Celica did that to me. Only I wasn't able to use the clutch at all. Thankfully it was only ~5 miles of straight shifting to the dealership.

Definitely a leaking differential, sometimes when they leak, they open a black hole and deposit fluid on the driver's feet when he's not looking.

Good work on buying the works, can't put a price on peace of mind.

^ Common everyone knows that cant happen in a supra. You have to have over 4000hp and launch at 5500 rpm then the ring gear and pinion gear will press together hard enough to split off a quantum particle fluctuation and the virtual pairs will reform making a primordial black hole at the drivers feet. Of course in a right hand drive car it will dump on the passenger side.:naughty:

Exactly !
Its not much fun R & R'ing maintenance parts.
Go fast parts are a bit different.
But with this car as I'm quickly learning..are usually still a PITA.
