Yeah, both at once -- ain't that always the way it goes? Doesn't really matter which cylinder went blooie -- might as well replace them both. If you didn't replace the hose at that same time, you mig

Oh, not the dreaded pedal drip! Both the brake MC and clutch MC are subject to leaking at the pushrod end of the unit. Most of that fluid will drip down the corresponding pedal, but if you have a dra
