Thread: halp halp - I've got no Clutch

If it is leaking from the slave cylinder, then it will need replacing.
I would probably recommend you replace the master cylinder as well.
When that is done you will have to bleed the system to get all the air out.

hadn a similar problem on my 110, the spec fluid should be stamped on the cylinder lid/cap, but in true LR fashion its blank.....

i just used some dot 4 and filled it up it came back ok to drive and had it done during some other work at my mechanics 4 days later

give it a go it should get you going

Thanks Guys.

Just need to get it drivable so I can get my baby to a hospital.

Top it up with brake fluid, any grade should do. With luck it will get you out of trouble.

There is a good chance that just topping it up and giving it a few pumps will get it going temporarily. If not try bleeding it. (Temporarily can sometimes mean months! Just check the fluid regularly.)

I assume from your comments that it is on a coil sprung Landrover. Other than the early 110, there is a possibility that your problem is a failed clutch fork, in which case fluid and bleeding will not help, although this rarely results in the loss of all fluid. There is also the slight possibility that it is due to a leak not at one of the cylinders, but these are very rare.

It always helps with this sort of query to state exactly which model we are talking about!

Sorry its an 86 isuzu 110 with an R380 gearbox.

I topped it up, and gave it a few pumps - it is drivable, but still difficult. Might have to bleed it when there is a little more light.
