When I last worked on my car (...like, a month ago), I noticed that my clutch slave cylinder was pretty leaky around the boot area... I ready a bit in the FSM and it says to take off the boot and check that isn't leaking fluid... which it is.

So does that mean I need to replace or rebuild my slave cylinder? The clutch worked fine when it was still installed, at least...

I'm gonna need to disconnect it to install it anyway, since I pushed the clutch in while the engine was out of the car, so apparently the cylinder is stuck in the OUT position, and it won't bolt up to the transmission until I disconnect it and force it closed (and then bleed it once I install it again).

Mine was the same way. Before I took the engine out the slave cylinder was fine, afterwards it leaked. I was able to stop most of the leaking by extending the pushrod on the clutch pedal and it doesn't leak at all in warm weather.

The rebuild kit for it is like 11 or 12 dollars, might as well do it while you're in there.

yes go get the rebuild kit i baught from autozone about a month ago, it was 7$ plus tax and it took all of 5 min's to do it ( excluding the time to take it off nad put it back on )
