need some emergency help with changing my clutch M/C..kinda long story.
I am in the process of changing my clutch M/C because my old one was puking grease onto the floorboard. Anyway, everything went smoothly, bled the clutch and all. then I noticed a little bit of fluid under the M/C, just a drop or two. noticed that the hose between the resevior and M/C looked to be leaking at the nipple on the M/C
Ok, so that hose seems to be leaking, right. No problem changed the braided hose with the rubber one that was on the new (used) M/C in the first place. Still seems to be leaking. Thinking that the hose clamps were shot, I put another pair on. Those leaked also. Went to Autozone and got a set of worm clamps and put those on as tight as i could and those appear to leak too. I'm getting desperate because I have to get this fixed tonight so I can drive to work tomorrow.

changed clutch M/C, hose to M/C leaks at M/C fitting, tried another hose, still leaks, tried another set of clamps, still leaks, tried worm clamps, still leaks
