Hydraulic Clutch
There is one reservoir for both the brake and the
hydraulic clutch fluid. See Brakes on page 299
for more information.
The hydraulic clutch linkage in your vehicle is
self-adjusting. The master cylinder reservoir
is filled with hydraulic fluid.
A fluid loss in this system could indicate a
problem. Have the system inspected and repaired.
When to Check and What to Use
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine
how often you should check the fluid level in
your master cylinder reservoir and for the proper
fluid. See Part B: Owner Checks and Services
on page 389 and Part D: Recommended Fluids
and Lubricants on page 396.
How to Check and Add Fluid
To check the fluid level, look on the side of the
reservoir. If the fluid reaches the MAX (A) mark on
the reservoir, the fluid level is correct. If the fluid
does not reach the MIN (B) mark on the reservoir,
then fluid needs to be added. The reservoir is
located near the back of the engine compartment
on the driver’s side of the vehicle. See Engine
Compartment Overview on page 276 for
more information on location.
