Default Transmission Fluid Dripping - Please help

The clutch was gone on my friend's t/a. So he bought a mcloud (sp) master and decided to install it himself. He did but it keeps running out of transmisison fluid. So he made sure all the lines were tightened properly and he whips out the mini vac and pours mor fluid in. Every time he'd press the clutch all the way in and then let it go it would slurp 1/3 of the tranny liquid in that little white container.

So I kept pouring, and i paused and said this just cant be right. I drop down and bam there is the fluid pouring from under the car onto the floor. So I get a tupperware bowl out of the house and put it under his car.

He lowers the jack stands and brings down the car. As he lowered each side of the car the fluid just came pouring out from under the car at a faster rate.

here is a few pics of what happened:
(can any one clue us in as to what wrong with his clutch)

i think when you say tranny fluid you mean brake fluid!!!
and from the picture looks like the slave is leaking bad, you will need to pull tranny out and see if slave is crack from back side or leak through seal!!!

Make sure the bleeder valve is closed, and make sure the quick disconnect fiting it fully seated.
