    Hi Guys:

    Was driving the 330 around this weekend an noticed brake fluid on the clutch pedal. Oh SHI**. I cleaned it off and saw no sign of any leakege from above the pedal and no trace of brake fluid. I had just fille dup with gas and perhaps I stepped in some oil? I don't know, but i drove around for two more days and it never happened again. If my master cyclinder was going, would it leak consistantly?

    How do you know it was brake fluid? Did you check under the hood for any leaks headed in that direction? Are the reservoirs all full? Any signs of leaking from them, their hoses, the master cylinder or the vacuum pie pan? I'd get a good light and start looking, especially under the dash. Even tho' I've had my GTC for 7 years, I'm not sure if the oil pressure line runs into the car like it does on my old 'Vettes or not...another potential source of aggravation. If this persists without a diagnosis, I'd post this on Tom Yang's site. Steve Meltzer "unencumbered by the thought process"

    What did you decide mechanic-wise by the way?
