Oil on Clutch Pedal

[R31Nismoid]

hrm... ive got oil running down my clutch pedal.

that isnt good is it?

any idea what causes it?

Hopefully nothing more than a leaky somethingorother

Leaking clutch master cylinder may be pumping oil back down the pedal. Have you got a hydraulic clutch?...lol

Maybe time for new cylinder....

:werd: master cylinder for sure It runs straight down the line to the pedal

Should only be a couple of hundred $ to get it reco'd ? Could be worse

I paid $60 for a new (not genuine) clutch master cylinder.

Bit of a hard task getting clutch line undone from master cylinder as there's very little room to put a spanner there, otherwise job wasn't too difficult.

Like i said Ash $70, fix the thing and go pull a high 11:)

with the 31 there is plenty of room to get to the clutch line. You can get a new PBR master cylinder for about $100.00

I only paid 130 for genuine nissan master and slave cylinders. I was pleasantly surprised.

thism sounds inexpensive indeed.

i looked today, but i couldnt actually see any fluid running down anywhere.

But its definately leaking... i got almost no clutch fluid left *sigh*

[Duncan]

Probably the seals are farked, so it only leaks when you press the clutch, and only if you had fluid in the first place

BTW off topic but I watched a friend spend the whole day today trying to change his master cylinder, it is a bitch of a job in a gtir

You can get a kit ( rubber seals ) but you will find the master cil will be pitted inside so it may work for a liitle while then leak again . Just get a new master cil put in and bleed it .

Duncan , you think master cil is hard to do on the gtir ? Ever tried to do a clutch on a gtir ?

:muahahaha: 2 words "engine out" rofl

Its great to find a car harder to work on than a gtr

Try a water pump on a mini.
