How to Change Clutch Fluid?

[coopz06]

I've seen many posts about changing the clutch fluid after every race. How is this done. I know there is a small resevoir next to the master cylinder with a half cup of fluid. Is this all the clutch fluid? Please Advise.

Thanks

Use the turkey baster method, it works real well and is fast.

I do mine just as stated above

Here is an old post of mine that provides a better alternative to "the turkey baster"." It uses a syringe to draw out the nasty clutch fluid and provides a picture.

This thing works great and reduces the chance of corrosive fluid spoiling your paint.

Doesn't look like your question was actually answered yet. Yes, that's the clutch reservoir. No that's not all the fluid in the system.

To get all the fluid out you need to bleed the clutch:
