Reply to "Clutch Pedal Acting Up"

jwelch68Member

So... I went out and opened the cap and noticed two things.

1. The brake fluid is the color of oil after 5K miles. Very dark.

2. The screen to keep debris out was floating inside the reservoir and the rubber gasket that holds it up was broken. I did find a few small specs of the gasket inside the reservoir after I vacuumed it out.

Weird thing is I have about 500 miles on brand new MC, Slave and Fluid. I know that I bled the system the first time until new fluid was coming thru the master.

Anway, I refilled the system with completely new fluid and bled it again. Took if for a drive and it does seem better but still have some slight sag on the initial push of the pedal.

I will keep an eye on it for now and see how the DOT 4 fluid holds up.

Thanks,
John
