While you have it apart (and if they are both old) you might want to consider rebuilding kits for both. Mark L<br><br></span></div>

<div class="yiv9889911743gmail_default" style="font-size: small;">Perfect timing, of course. I've driven it every couple weeks all summer, no problems. But I was getting it ready to go to a show tomorrow, the first one of the year. I pushed it out of the garage, checked all the fluids, the tire pressures, washed the windshield...</div>
<div class="yiv9889911743gmail_default" style="font-size: small;"> </div>
<div class="yiv9889911743gmail_default" style="font-size: small;">And then I went to start it. The clutch pedal went straight to the floor, little resistance. That's new. I pumped it a few times and it started to feel more like normal. No leaks on the ground, no fluid missing when I rechecked the reservoir. I have the stock master and slave with silicon fluid. I'm thinking its master rebuild time. </div>
<div class="yiv9889911743gmail_default" style="font-size: small;"> </div>
<div class="yiv9889911743gmail_default" style="font-size: small;"> Any other thoughts out there?</div>

<div class="yiv9889911743gmail_default" style="font-size: small;">So much for mini British car day at Larz Anderson. No way I'm committing to a 45 minute drive into Brookline with a questionable clutch. And there's no way to turn up a master rebuild kit this afternoon.</div>
