U can see the foam is damp. Which makes me think its the fluid. At first I thought it was diesel but I didn’t smell the scent of it |
the video is a bit shaky but I think I saw some spray come out of the rubber "gator" and perhaps spray onto some foam. If I am right then I agree, master has failed.
This is a DIY job and whilst some may disagree removing the front seat may make replacing it easier. Removing the clutch pedal also makes it easier to do. Bleed the system after fitting a new master, good luck
I also changed the bolts used to hole the master cylinder in place. I think I used longer bolts but "half way" along the bolt brazed a nut in place. This nut tightens against the master cylinder to hold it in place but the head of the bolt is easier to get to to do up and undo.
I may have created a thread about it a couple of years ago.
