Clutch Reservoir leaking, tips please
Couldn't find any info on this subject. My car has sat for about a month now. Besides my dead battery that's been on a Porsche cigarette lighter charger. My clutch reservoir is leaking. Any tips on where to get parts and on the repair? Is there a write up on the actually repair? Do I need to bleed system?

Looks like my Clutch Slave Cylinder and Clutch Pressure Accumulator needs replacement. Was going to order from Pelican since they are in my state of CA but they won't ship the accumulator. Suncoast will but the Slave Cylinder is $250 cheaper. Seems like a aftermarket part. Has anyone used and was parts fine?

i would get the slave from pelican ( and have ) and the accumulator from suncoast. there is some strange prohibition against this item being shipped and few are able to explain definitively as to why.

@Nico911, Can you get more details of the parts need for the repair? Would be nice to try on my car to test your repair, then everyone can try this cheap fix before the more extensive fix.

The o ring on my car was damaged so air went through the system.

@Nico911, think mine is leaking through the small hole on top of the cap. The whole area is drenched with that fluid. The reservoir and cover is soak. Must be really coming out like a water gun. That now leads me to think its not gasket, but the sake of testing I'll do it for everyone. Just to confirm.
@pelicanparts, so if i order the oem accumulator from you, you will ship to me?

Nico, what do you think that BLACK cap is located at the 2 o'clock position is??? A vent to atmosphere? Short term fix.. Post back to your thread 6 months from now and tell us that you haven't added any Pentosin.. That will then build validity to your statement. Right now it's unproven.
Replace the slave and accumulator together..
