Post subject:  leaking master cylinder

so as you saw in the thread mick posted, my master cylinder is leaking. my bite point sank to teh floor the other day. havent driven the car since.. Tomorrow I'm planning to drive to micks and we will swap out the leaking master and slave with the new one...

my main question is, because its leaking now, if I top it up and pump up the pedal when I'm in neutral, should I be alright to drive it around tomorrow? lol I suppose at any point if the seal completely blows then I lose the clutch. but then I suppose I can start it in 2nd gear and limp it home if that happens... But yes, aside from it possibly giving up completely anyway, I should be fine to drive it with the leaky cylinder?

Yes should be fine too drive. Worst yhats gonna happen is all that brake fluid leaking is gonna strip any paint it touches.

The master cylinder will still work.
