Hello this is my first post. : )
I have a 98 chevy s-10 pickup with a 5 speed and 2.2L
when its summer time my clutch is fine I have added clutch fluid maybe 4 times all summer but as soon as it gets to about 40 deg outside I have to add fluid every day. Does this sound like a bad O ring on my slave cylinder. Clutch still works great just leaks
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

If you are adding fluid that often you do have a leak, peel back the rubber boot on the slave cyl and if there is fluid present the cyl should be replaced, to check the master cyl is a bit harder, look up under the dash where the pedal rod is and have a good look for signs of fluid leaking out of the master cyl.

Good luck,
