The master cylinder is next to the brake master and the slave cylinder is next to the clutch on the left side. The small cylinder is an easy and cheap overhaul. Not really a good choice of terms those.

See if you have fluid left in the clutch master. Mopar151 Dec 2013 #3

Storage is the problem BobUp Dec 2013 #4

Well, even when I store it I make a point to start it and move it when possible. Tab Dec 2013 #5

As others have suggested, the problem is probably insufficient clutch system pressure. Gold Metal Flake Dec 2013 #6

Clutches don't grind - tranny gears do though . . . ConcernedCanuk Jan 2014 #7

Yes, I realized after I wrote it that it wasn't really my clutch grinding Tab Jan 2014 #8

I don't know if you read my reply... JohnnyRingo Jan 2014 #12

No, I didn't catch that. Tab Jan 2014 #13

Use only Dot4 fluid. JohnnyRingo Jan 2014 #14

Did you add brake fluid to the clutch or brake cylinder recently? JohnnyRingo Jan 2014 #9

Check for clutch fluid leak at slave dust boot, or master firewall. Eleanors38 Mar 2014 #15
