Clutch slippage, losing clutch fluid
 

I've been losing clutch fluid slowly-- I had my friend pump the clutch but I could see any leaking anywhere so it must be fairly slow, but if I drive say 30 miles stop and go shite, Its visibly lower in the resevoir. My clutch has been slipping a lot lately-- could this be in part because of lower clutch pressure from a leak? And any ideas where it could be leaking from/what could be causing the loss of fluid? any ideas appreciated

check the master and slave cylinder for leakage?

places to check for would be the slave cylinder, master cylinder, the braided hose and underneth the clutch pedal (yes inside the car) and that`s prob.ly your case. it oculd leak from the rod seal.

Thanks I'll check em tomorrow-- didn't think of inside the car

luckily the hydro clutch systems on hondas are easy to troubleshoot and fix.

do the basic stuff mentioned above, you'll find it.

Would the leak make the clutch slip? maybe? hopefully? please? I'm poor right now. Clutch > me

yup, fluid on the clutch = slip

I don`t see hoe the clutch fluid could get into the disk, unless the slave cylinder is blinding

clutch is probably shot anyway...the level of fluid has nothing to do with how hard the clutch engages

My ek blew some ------- seal in the tranny which resulted in tranny fluid all over the clutch and it slipped :3
