fluid leaking from clutch pedal....
in a 93 eg... while vacuming i noticed a black grease stain on the carpet, right below my clutch pedal. i looked up and there is some sort of grease or oil coming out where the clutch pedal comes in from the firewall. has this happened to anybody? does anybody know what i should do and what the problem is? thanks.

Well in my case i know it's a blown seal but i'm not sure if you can just replace the seal. I'm sure a new master cylinder doesn't cost much.

Re: fluid leaking from clutch pedal.... (B16A2)
just of curiosity, what kind of hydraulic fluid have you been using?
I've bee told my a number of different people that Honda OE fluid has some additive that preserves the seals in the master cylinders. Using a non-Honda fluid can allow those seals to deteriorate over time. My car has 130,000 miles, never anything but Honda fluid, and not a leak in sight.

Had the same problem. I bled the clutch and problem solved. It might not necessarily mean the clutch MC is broken, mine is the original.
