Ok i put about 200 miles on the jeep today as I rolled back into town the jeep didnt respond when I hit the clutch. I popped it out of gear couldnt get it go back into any gears. I shut it off at the light it went through the gears just fine. I restarted it in gear with it lurching forward it works and it got me across rev matching my shifting. I pull in the driveway pop the hood My master cylinder is dry. So My question is where did it all go. I checked Around the master and under the dash it didnt look as if it were looking there. So im guessing it has to be the slave. Any Idea what Should I order is there a kit? I looked for a slave for it all I found was a clutch control unit Im not sure if that is the slave or something else. LOL as always this is my daily driver so I need to get it back on the road soon and dont have to the funds to put it in the shop so any help would be much appreciated.

 

mine did the same, i searched everywhere for a leak...found none.. i filled it back up and continued the drive the truck for 5 years before selling it without another problem.

 

lol now that would be frustrating

 

does any one know if the clutch control is the same as the slave pump on this tranny?

 

Before I did my ax15 swap in my 87 I had the same problem. Turned out to be the line running from the master to the tranny was leaking. It starts out as a brass line (maybe another metal?) but as it gets under the jeep it turns to rubber. The rubber has a hard exterior that will wear out over time and will leak the clutch fluid out of the line itself. This is where I would look first.

 

Yeah checked that its only about 6 months old

 

Ok tried what crawl said on a hunch and filled it up pumped up the pedal and it is working fine. I dont know what to say im kind of confused and not really understanding whats going on. But the clutch is holding pressure And Doesnt seem to be leaking.

 

lol looks like im gonna have to replace it. It quit working again.
