Default Clutch question........

I was changing my rear brakes today and noticed that there was brake-like fluid on the driver-side near the dead pedal. I smelled the fluid to see what it was and couldn't tell what it was. So i continued to finish the brake work. After looking under the hood, I didnt realize that there were no clutch resevoir.

My question to you 4th gen civic guys is, where is the clutch resevoir on a 91 Civic HB Si? Or is there even one on the car?

I am fairly new to the 4th gen civics. So any response would help me to figure out what that fluid may be. I though it was brake or clutch fluid.

Your master cylinder may be leaking back thru you brake booster. If that is the case better replace both, because the brake fluid will kill the rubber diaphram in the brake booster. Just take the brake booster off and see if it looks like there is any fluid on the back side, if there is its leaking back and that is bad.
