Would there be any problems relocating the clutch fluid resevoir to the other side of the strut mount, where the EGR solenoid is? The line would have to be extended, but that's no big deal. I just wonder if the longer line, and the resevoir being lower than the line at a point, will cause problems.

 

Anybody?

 

it shouldn't cause problems, but you might need to add a little more fluid to make up for the distance of the extended hose...and find a good place to mount it.

 

I think you would want to make sure you dont lower the reseviour because you still want air bubbles to raise out the top.

I could be wrong but thats just some insite.

also why would you want to relocate it

That's all I would worry about. Why do you need to move it?

 

Long story short, it's the only spot I can find to put my fuel pressure regulator. I had it mounted on the firewall, but I'm switching IMs, and need to move it so the new manifold will fit.

I think I can keep the air out of the line, and as long as the resevoir stays full, it should be OK.

 

can somebody answer this n00b question for me quick, what goes in the clutch resevoir container? brake fluid/ MTF / something else?

 

dot 3 or 4 brake fluid

 

mine is completely empty, and my clutch pedal feels a bit spongy again, is that why?

i bet you have a leak sir, probably at your master or slave clutch cyl

and uhh...not worth the trouble imo. might as well convert to a manual non hydro clutch line...just those cable thingies...
