using with hydraulic fluid?


I would ask why? Clutch hydraulics don't usually ever need topping up. If
it is leaking, it will only get worse.


Master cylinder + reservoir is difficult to check, located above the
pedal in the cabin and slave has a reputation of failing, so my plan is
to fit a second reservoir feeding the original one, but in a more
accessible location under the bonnet.

It is not presently an issue.
