Default Clutch Problem?

Hey guys, got a quick question. I keep running out of fluid in my hydraulic clutch. I have a 95 manual, so the resavoir is right underneath the computer. I can't seem to find anything leaking, as their are no drips coming from around there. Any Ideas?

Check under the dash where the push rod connects to the pedal. See if the back of the clutch master cylinder is wet. If not check on the slave cylinder on the bellhousing. One or the the other blew a seal or you have aloose fitting or the reservoir is leaking.

I never did find a leak with my clutch system, I replace both the master and slave and all is good. Had a heck of a time finding a good slave as you see from the clutch threads that some of them have been remanufactured with the seals backwards. Good Luck

I replaced the master cylinder this weekend and that seemed to have taken care of the problem... It looked like it was going to be a pain in the ***, but i just pulled the battery out and it was easy to get too... i did have some fun getting up underneath the dash to disconnect the clutch pedal though... wish i had a picture of that one...
