rant: slave cylinder is shot I really don't feel like pulling this tranny. I had a problem last week where my clutch pedal stuck to the floor. So I changed out the fluid, and the car felt good. But then it happened again. I check the resevoir, and it was empty! So I filled it again, and every time I check it it's down again.
So, I got under the car today to see what's up. Sure enough, there is fluid coming out of the small hole in the bottom of the bellhousing. All of the lines are bone dry.
So now I have to pull the tranny, buy a new slave cylinder, and a new clutch since I can feel that the fluid has been sprayed on the clutch! And I was planning on getting some tuning done next week, so I had to cancel that til I figure out when the hell I'm gonna fix this thing! Alright, rant over.

That sucks. My bro had to drop his tranny again after just putting in a new slave and clutch, the one he put in lasted two weeks. Defective I guess. He didnt get fluid on the clutch though.
