clutch fluid empty overnight
My question is why? I hadnt driven the car in about 3 weeks, i started it and noticed the clutch was a little soft...so I found the reservoir to be a bit low, so topped it off. I then went for a short drive across town and back again when i parked it until the next afternoon when I wanted to drive it some more. I went to start it and this time the clutch was completely dead...straight to the floor. I open the reservoir and it is empty....and a large puddle of fluid is on the floor. I changed clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder about a year ago and havent had an issue until now. I did top it off this spring after it sat the winter...although I did take it out in January when it was about 4 degrees and everything was great for the 90 mile excursion. Anyway, I've rambled enough....please let me know if this is a m/c or s/c defect or something else. Thank you in advance.

Re: clutch fluid empty overnight
i'm thinking it might be the line....the puddle is directly below where the back of the oil pan and front of tranny meet. I need to get under there and investigate more.
