Clutch Slave Cylinder Gone Bad?

Taking the car out of storage this is what happened:

Could it be the accumulator? or the slave? I only ask if it is the slave I would order the evoms gt2 conversion. However I don't want to have the car sitting at the shop for 2 weeks while the part is being shipped.


What do you guys think?

Check your pentosin reservoir in your frunk ... If that's just low, you could simply top it off, start the car, pump your clutch 10-20 times til it builds pressure.


Also check the seal of the pentosin cap. Would also look under the car if you have a pool of something ...


This way at least you can drive the car out to get it looked at ...


My $0.2 says its the slave on its way ...

regardless, there is a leak somewhere. Once maybe Okay but 4 times? You are low on fluid or need a conversion.


I would go with stock 997 Gt2 parts on this if you need to change.

You just saved me a $400 tow! Yes my fluid was low, I did fill it up and pump the pedal with no success. However the car was off; After turning the car on i could slowly feel the pressure building. About 150 pumps later i had my pedal back! Thanks! I can hear fluid squirting when i press on the pedal however at least i can get it to the shop!
