Master cyl replace or fix?
got clutch/brake fluid in my carpet under the clutch pedal...
is this a sure sign of needing to replace the master cyl or is there a fix (like a new rubber seal) that can be done?

you will have to replace it. i just replaced mine and i have bad luck and got a faulty one that started leaking again 1 day after i put it in. clutch felt great for awhile then it felt terrible a day later. and was leaking. pepboys has them pretty cheap like 70 bucks or so

pick up an omni power one, its an upgrade over the stock makes the clutch feel better and allows for quicker shifts

Omni-clutch master is garbage.
You don't need a new master either.
95% of all s2k clutch master cyls leak, from dirty fluid. Everyone can go look right now
Just change your fluid now, and every 5k miles, and the leak will stop. Guaranteed.

x1...i just replace mine and it start leaking again recentley...how does the fluid get dirty so easy?
Fwiw, I just replaced mine at 6 yrs old. I first flushed the fluid, but it was still leaking, with black build up at the plunger, which I took to be disintegrating rubber mixed with brake fluid. Ymmv.
