Today after many hours of work i was able to awaken my rig. I installed a new holly carburetor, put a new battery in and filled it up. It had been 6 years since it had last been started an after ten minute, it turned over. https://forum.ih8mud.com/images/smilies/clap.gif

So I then tried to shift it in too gear and notice that the Clutch pedal went straight to the floor so i checked the clutch master cylinder and the lead to the clutch to see if there was any leaks or anything that look off. Well there was nothing else check the fluid and pump the clutch and noticed there was no change in fluid level. So I had the assistance of a friend who kept pumping the clutch pedal and i looked at the fluid. There was a strange dark thick fluid.

Any body ever run into something like this. If so got any advice on how to fix it?

The dark fluid is your piston sealing ring disintegrated, you could try to suck the muck out out and flush the system and it MAY return to service, but I would just order a new one,

So sorry to hear that. :bang:


I'd also grab a new slave while your at it.

100% correct.


Any idea where to locate one?

Master and slave were in stock at my local Napa auto parts when I was in need. The master went bad after 6 months and just a couple hundred miles. They graciously replaced it under warranty, but Toyota parts would be a better value for about double the cost.
