Unfortunately Macafee, I neglected to bring either a funnel or piece of plastic pipe. If I'd have been at home that's how I would have done it but as there was no sign of clutch trouble until a few miles away from here, I neglected to bring it. I left my tools at home apart from a pozidrive screwdriver and a pair of tweezers my wife left behind in the car.
Has anybody modified their clutch so it can be filled from another place, maybe on the firewall under the bonnet? I have a plastic reservoir but never got round to trying the modification. I would have it filled up and be gone by now with extra bottle of clutch fluid from this petrol station incase the cylinder is leaking so I could stop occasionally and refill to get me home. Never mind, at least I managed to get the car to somewhere lit up, off the road and with food, drinks and toilet.
