I just got both master n slave clutch cylinder replaced. working ok, sometimes it would sunk down but work again fine. I noticed there is a small leak at the bolt that connects the hydraulic line at the master cylinder. I tried to tighten it just a hair, now there is a massive leak. Nothing seem to stop this, is there a trick to this?

 

can you make a video ?

 

I can try. The leak is at the brake connector (AN to male brake adapter) and the master clutch cylinder. Every time I press on the clutch pedal, fluid would come out there. I tried to use silicone sealant, does not work. I tried that white tape for seal (dont know what that is called) still leak. My guess is the adapter either missing something else or is stripped. I hope this make some sort of sense.

 

is this an autozone master cylinder or oreilly auto ? I tried both of theirs before and one of them leaked at a sealing bolt on the side of the master cylinder...it was complete junk...so was the other one..the sealing bolt itself was stripped so I'm thinking whoever assembled it stripped the bolt as they were trying to tighten it down and decided to just send it through instead of junking it at the assembly plant

you will not be able to use a sealant to seal it, there's too much pressure

 

This is from an auto part shop. The brand is Adler, Japan made, so I figure it should be good. Now I think the brake adapter is a little bit bigger, maybe I can't tighten it good? I don't know where to buy that adapter locally. I hope the place I will go to have it. I been searching the web, and the proper one should be -3 AN to male 10mm x1 brake adapter? does that sound right? if that is the case, I might need new hydraulic line since it wont fit wit the new one?

 

are you talking about the flare wrench ? You should only be using flare wrenches. Open end wrenches won't work.

 

It not the wrench. It the AN fitting, I dont know how to describe this lol. I guess I will have to tow my car to the shop and get that resolve.

 

seriiously how hard is it to just take a picture and upload it to photobucket for free ?
