clutch system

[clumsy_smurf]

well today i was driving my sol, and i went to stop, pressed in my clutch pedal and it did nothing. i couldnt get it to go into gear and i had to turn off the car to advoid running into the back of someone. i know its either the slave or master cylinder but how can i tell which one it is?

[Cynical 1]

look for a leak - wet on/under the driver floormat/firewall area, or is it wet around the slave on the tranny (inside trans hole and boot). also look at the soft line as well.

both are under $50 to replace if you want to buy a new slave and master...

[clumsy_smurf]

the slave has fluid around the line

[Cynical 1]

is the line fitting loose?

fill the master with fluid, have a friend pump the clutch, and see if the line itself leaks.

rule of thumb replace them at the same time!!!

But if money is tight check both and see which one is leaking ....If slave is wet around It would be slave lines tend not go bad on hondas unless you or someone else damaged them.
