HELP!! No clutch
Written by divein_southfl on 6/9/2011 at 11:40 am

Really, I am standing right next to clueless here. What access panel? Anyone
close to me (Ft Laud/Miami) that will trade some mechanical know how for a
lobster dinner and beers? Or is there a step by step procedure (with pics,
hopefully)that I can use to guide me?

access panel. It is tight, but with some vinyl hose that fits tightly over the
bleeder, it can be done without much trouble.

fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs water. Water would not float at
the top of the fluid, it mixes well. You really should change the fluid NOW.
While clutch fluid boilover is not as probable as with the brakes, corrosion
inside the system will still happen, leading to more expensive repairs. Think
about it.
