thank you all for the many answers (and your patience). =20
the restoration on this car was started over 10 years ago by a mechanic =

including the hose, which has brake fluid on it just above the metal =
connection where it meets the slave. I=E2=80=99m going to replace it as =
I believe that is the problem.
but I am saving the other answers as I well know it could be additional =
problems.
I had to replace one of the brake hoses, which also leaked at the =
connection, so this is no surprise.

Subject: [TR] problem with clutch
TR3 small mouth. finishing up years long restoration. car is running =
(YAY!!!) and driving. it now has 1 mile on it.
but the clutch has to be pumped to work. I=E2=80=99ve bled it several =
times but it has made no difference. I=E2=80=99ve carefully inspected =
around the master and slave; I don=E2=80=99t think it is leaking =
anywhere. brake fluid seems to go down very slowly in the reservoir =
when I bleed. =20
any thoughts? bleed it some more?
