Ok, I have a very dumb question for you guys.
Is the black rubber condom looking thing under the cap in the clutch reservoir supposed to be full of fluid??
The reason I ask is when I first bought the truck I checked all the fluids and that thing was full of fluid.
I pulled it out and dumped the fluid. The reservoir was at the normal level so I just put the rubber thing and the cap back. I've always thought it was for pressure relief without squirting fluid out since the cap has a hole on it.
Since it was full when I bought it, I'm not sure anymore, that's the reason I'm asking. I've been having problems with the clutch not disengaging enough to make smooth shifts, I bled it once and worked great for a while now it's doing it again, I'm just trying to pinpoint the problem before I start throwing parts at it.
Thanks a lot guys..
