Help Please truck is running great and the brakes now work great. Todays big problem is clutch trouble fluid leaked inside the cab on the pedal and on the floor mat looks like the slave. If I replace that what do you fill with and will that fix the problem? as I dont even have enough to idle in gear HELP

If the fluid leaked on the pedal then to the floor, that would be the clutch master, the slave is at the trans. Basically the same as the brake master, replace it and bleed. You use DOT 3 fluid, the same stuff as your brake master takes.

It is the clutch master, that is leaking I just bought one on ebay $14 how hard is it to change and bleed never did it before. and thanks fellow luvers for all the help now and in the past

1/2 the time of a brake master. No brainer, at least I have never had a problem.

There is a bleeder on the slave cylinder down by the trans, but I've always had bad luck with it.

I ended up finding a trick that seems to work most of the time. You take the slave loose from the trans, break loose the hose going into it first, take the hose loose, then with the slave pointing straight down let fluid run out of the hose and fill up the slave cylinder. When the fluid runs over out of the slave, screw it back onto the hose. No air in the system unless you screw up and let the master run out of fluid in the process.

I think the bleeder is just poorly placed or something, because it always took me hours of doing it to get it to work before.

If you can, replace the slave along with the master. It is probably full of crud too now if the master went out. Seems like mine always tended to go together.
