Is it possible to use the brake fluid reservoir to feed the hydralic clutch? Or will this cause brake system problems?

Thank You!!!!

The kit that Rich Johnson sells for a hydraulic clutch works that way. There is no problem. The amount of fluid that is actually moved under braking is very small. The extra is there to take up the slack when the pads wear. If you lose the rear brakes, your clutch will still work, until it leaks out all the fluid. If the clutch fails, you can lose your rear brakes, if you have a leak.

And it won't affect the front brakes at all. That's why we have split master cylinders......Redundancy.
