Clutch fluid emptying itself problem


Recommended Posts

I have the AX-5 transmission on my 86 2.8l. Every month it seems my clutch pedal just gets loose when I start it up about to drive and I go look and the clutch fluid resivwar (I know I spelled that wrong) is empty) then I'll fill it back up and pump the clutch and all that business and get going. So all in all it randomly will just empty itself of all clutch fluid over night or while I'm at school. When I look on the group there is no fluid there! I've recently replaced the clutch master cylinder and I'm still having the problem! Any solutions? Thank you!

check the master cylinder in the cab, they tend to leak onto the fuse box.  it could be leaking at either end of the clutch hose or along the line it self. the slave (i think ax5 had external) may be leaking.  those are all the clutch components that contain fluid.

 

you said you have replaced the master, so all that's left is the hose and slave cylinder. 

 

 

when i was having the same issue the master was bad, the hose was leaking and so was the internal slave, i replaced it all at one and did not look back.
