Hello, my name is Tiger, I'm new to this forum..

I have a 94 Mazda B2300 that during the cold, I am constantly losing fluid in my master/slave cylinder that holds the brake fluid. This is the little resivoir next to the firewall that has the black rubber diaphram in it. I have to pump my clutch pedal to get any pressure and to shift into any gear. During the cold times, I fill that resivoir everyother day. During the warm times, I fill it once every 3 -4 weeks.

I have replaced the rubber hose between the res and the metal hosing that goes under the truck.

I believe it has to be a seal or something, but never see any fluid on the ground under the truck which makes me believe that it leaks whild driving..

any help or suggestions are very much appreciated.

The slave cylinder is THE most common failure in clutch problems on these transmissions. Unfortunately, you have to drop the trans to replace the slave.
There's a view port on the lower part of the bellhousing. You can pop out the rubber cover and take a peak inside with a flashlight...
