The brakes and clutch share the same reservoir.
If it does this in all gears, I bet your clutch is shot. Other things that could cause problems are the Clutch master cylinder or clutch slave cylinder.
Answer: Normally located down by clutch arm (that sticks out between the engine and transmission). How do you locate it? The clutch pedal depresses a clutch master cylinder on the firewall (driver side). Follow the hose line down to the where the clutch arm is located. NOTE: don't get the brake master cylinder and clutch master cylinder confused, its easy if you do not work on cars regularly.
In the clutch master cylinder next to the brake master.
There is a smaller master cylinder next to the brake master cylinder. The clutch uses brake fluid also. If you mean where does it go if it is low, the slave cylinder on the transmission is probably leaking.
If I read you right that would be the clutch master cylinder.Are you talking about the black hose going from the reservoir to the cylinder? Need a more detailed description than black thing.
Whenever you are having a problem with the clutch disengaging the engine from the transmission it is advisable to bleed the clutch slave cylinder. If the clutch can't be operated by bleeding the slave cylinder then the clutch master cylinder is gone and should be replaced.
Probably the Clutch Master Cylinder or the slave cylinder.
how do you locate the clutch master cylinder and check the fluid level of the 1995 ford escort
Clutch master cylinder, usually located near the brake master cylinder. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I chose the ( 1996 and 2003 ) Ford Escort owners manuals to look at and they show that the brake master cylinder is also used for the hydraulic clutch
The clutch gets its fluid from the master brake cylinder reservoir. The master clutch cylinder sits just below the master brake cylinder reservoir and is fed fluid by gravity.
You can't adjust the clutch on ANY Escort. They have hydraulic clutches with a master cylinder and a slave cylinder. However, if the clutch isn't releasing it can be bled of air.
The clutch master cylinder and the brake master cylinder are part of the same system . Both can be filled at the brake master cylinder using brake fluid
The clutch master cylinder is in the engine compartment and the slave cylinder for the hydraulic clutch is inside the manual transmission bellhousing
The clutch IS supposed to go to the floor. Do you mean why doesn't it release the transmission from the engine. It probably needs to have air bled from the master cylinder and the slave cylinder.
According to the Owner Guide , the clutch master cylinder and the brake master cylinder are part of the same system . The clutch and the brake system can be filled at the brake master cylinder with DOT 3 brake fluid
Should be right beside the brake master cylindar.
That line runs from the clutch master cylinder to the clutch slave cylinder. It's not a brake line altough it derives it's fluid from the brake reservoir. You could get it from the dealer or pick it yourself at a salvage yard.
