Re: Change your clutch fluid.... (Austin)

I kept on changing it out until I bit the bullet and dropped $75 on Tokico OE master/slave cylinders.

No more dirty fluid

word of warning though, no more speedbleeder loving...they use a different thread type than the Tokico

Re: Change your clutch fluid.... (.RJ)

they were cheap

Honda = cheap
therefore Honda owner = cheap
therefore Honda parts for Honda owner = must be CHEAP!

I dont know, I have not driven it. I'll let you guys know after the weekend.

Edit: To answer the next question, i used OEM honda fluid. Why? I use Motul for my brakes, and that **** is expensive. The Honda dealer is on the way home from work, and it was $5 for a small can - no sense buying a big *** bottle of vavoline supersynpowerbling when i'm only going to use 1 pint of it.

How do you 'check' the fluid? What are you looking for to know you need to change it?
