Matt, I had the exact thing happen with mine. I yanked the carpeting out and cleaned up everything with Acetone. Be advised I am a chemist by trade and maybe don't head chemical warnings as well as one should. Acetone is a carcinigen (like most organic solvents) so make sure you wear gloves and do the cleaning in a well ventilated area AWAY FROM ALL OPEN FLAMES, Acetone is VERY flammable. I used a small scrub brush on the floor carpet, if you do this be careful none splashes on your face. It is a good idea not to let it get on any of your skin as it will take the oil out of your skin just as well as it removes brake fluid from carpeting. There may be a safer alternative, I tried Ethanol, Methanol, and Iso-Propyl Alcohol, none worked nearly as well as Acetone. O-Xylene might work but is much more expensive. Methyl Ethyl Ketone and Methylene Chloride will probably work but are much nastier than Acetone, I wouldn't recommend either. Good Luck and Be Safe, -SweatyEddy ----- Original Message ----- From: <UNCLEUMP@xxxx> To: <dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 1999 6:11 PM Subject: [DML] Cleaning up after clutch master cylinder leak. > I just had the slave cylinder & master clutch cylinder replaced.
