Hi,

When I bought my van a few weeks back it didn't seem to have any brake fluid leaking into the drivers footwell but it did have a big old split in the vacuum t-piece and pants brakes. Since then I have replaced the t-piece which has vastly improved the brake efficiency. However I know seem to have fluid in the footwell, it's definately not water. Should I have bled something? Is it too much vacuum? Coincidence?

What do you guys think? A garage has said suspected master cylinder but if it's just a case of bleeding I'd prefer that.

Cheers Josh

It has already bled - 4 hr wait at A&E for it.

Look to see if the reservoir has overflowed and dripped down first - it may be a result of your repairs at t'other end.

Unfortunately....more likely to be the clutch master cylinder...the fluid level drops until it hits the take off on the reservoir.

at least its an easy thing to replace
