Brake Fluid leak as per earlier thread

[Nitmoi]

I have light leak onto the floor via the rubber boot on the steering shaft.

It is coming from a bolt just above, and dripping on a clear hose exiting on a banjo just above the clutch pedal.

There is no noticeable loss from the reservoir so I'm not too concerned I tightened the bolt which was already tight.

Presumably if the tightening does not work I guess I'll have to remove and re-seal the bolt.

I can't find any serious diagram of this part and would expect a large release of fluid.

will this need a total re- bleed or just a re-top up or the reservoir?

I borrowed the pic off the other thread - its the bolt that is just going out of the pic as it goes behind the steel cross member.

Hi,
more likely to be your clutch master cylinder leaking, the bolt in the pic holds the master cylinder in place. you will have some fluid loss when removing and fitting new part. pull back your rubber mat/ carpet first and get ready with the rags!
