Hydraulic Clutch Fluid Does anyone use anything else besides Dot 3?
The reason I'm asking is the fluid in my resivoir is really dirty and it's noticebly harder to shift the car. I took a hard pass and the clutch just went to the floor and wouldn't come back up. It has DOT 3 brake fluid in there now, and I am going to change the fluid and bleed it this weekend.

Just use regular DOT 3 fluid when you flush and refill it. I insulated the line running from the master to the slave cylinder and haven't had my fluid get black/dirty since then.
