OK...I see now...But...
In a Spridget I've always used brake fluid in the clutch MC and hence line
and slave cylinder...have I been wrong all these years? Is that why they
keep going out
The subject was Spridgets and the hydraulic clutch system, and if I've been
doing it wrong all these years I will be very greatful to know it.
Just in case I haven't been wrong, is there any problem with using brake line
for the clutch system in a Spridget?
RH..Thanks for the clarification........
