Things went from great to I can't believe it. Poolboy helped me thru the emissions plumbing took it out for a nice ride ran great. I get up this morning ready for a early morning cruise. I start her up push the clutch pedal in right to the floor check the reservoir empty? I need to put some fluid in to see where it blew out I always use Castrols GT LMA which I can find without ordering it. Is there a brand that I can get without destroying the rubber seals. Thanks

Wherever it's leaking, I'd recommend rebuilding both the master and the slave..if they are not pitted and because of that can be rebuilt.
Unless you are using Silicone (purple in color) you can use NAPA brand DOT3 or Valvoline DOT 3-4. without problems..at least that's my experience.
One thing that often brings questions on the Forum is "SYNTHETIC" or "FULLY SYNTHETIC" on the label.
No problem.. but not to be confused with "Silicone".
