Hi ladybug08,

Thank you for the donation.

Both the brake and clutch and clutch uses the same fluid and is either recommended as DOT 3 or DOT 4 which is the specification.

The bigger reservoir is for the brake master cylinder whereas the smaller reservoir would be for the clutch. If the fluid keeps depleting, you need to check for leakages and repair accorgdingly. Topping up would only be a temporary measure.

Hoope the above helps.

MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPY NEW YEAR.
