Subject:clutch master weeping
From:Matt Ratto

well, really both of us... but seriously, the clutch master cylinder in my
1982 Westy is weeping from one of the mounting bolts that attaches it to the
frame (not from the hose going to the slave, but from the bolt directly
above it.) No other leaks. Does this mean I need a new clutch master, or can
I simply replace the rubber o-rings Bentley has listed as being installed
with those mounting bolts? Does anyone know why these mounting holes would
go all through to the master cylinder chamber - that's what I really don't
understand.

thanks,

Matt
