How’s it going guys I’m trying to fix this leak here I can’t seam to figure out yet. I took off the rubber bar underneath on the tranny to check the slave cylinder out but I didn’t notice any leaks I have a small video here. Another thing the rubber that sits on top of the master cylinder are you supposed to add fluid after or on the rubber?

Pull the rubber cup out and add fluid directly to the reservoir.
 






If you’re needing to add fluid to the clutch res, you must have a leak, and it’s usually the slave.
That said, is it me or is there a crack between the drain plug and the leak spot?

I noticed that too every time I do a oil change it looked like it but it doesn’t look like a crack

Oil it’s always at the dot
 






Then maybe rear main seal starting to go.

Yea I might of messed it up when I first added fluid. I added the fluid on the rubber cup & was running it like that for two day before I took the rubber cup out & poured fluid straight on the master. Now it leaks way less
