Leaky Clutch Fluid Problem


Recommended Posts

So about 2 months my clutch master cylinder was leaking all over my fuse box. I replaced that right after I figured out the problem. Then I would get in my MJ and push the clutch in first thing in the morning and it would be soft and the fluid was all gone. So then I found some linkage that was leaking in the clutch line and I repaired that. This stopped the leak for a good while. Well this morning I go in my shed and there's fluid all over the floor right under the passenger side of the transmission. What do you know it's my clutch fluid :(. So I looked up and I dot know what this part is called but whatever the master cylinder connects to that enters the transmission was leaking. So do I have to replace this unknown part to me or is it just a gasket? If so can someone link me to a part from any auto parts store? I would post pictures but lately I haven't had any luck with that! It says my phones to old. Thanks for any help :).

What transmission do you have and is it external or internal slave? You'll probably better off replacing the whole clutch system. They sell a good one on RockAuto.

Sorry I should of specified, it's a 1986 Jeep Comanche 2.8L with the AX-5. Not sure if its internal or external.

Just a suggestion- remove your line and take it to NAPA or a hydraulic shop and have them make you a new stainless braided line......might cost you $40 or so but that will be the next thing to go.

 

Also, there should be a bleed screw on your slave, you need to bleed it after you replace it.

Awesome! And yes I do have the external it looks a little different but will work! And I'm going to do that the clutch is defiantly something ide like to future proof. I found the Bleeder valve hard to get to though.
