Hey guys. I installed a Ring Brothers Reservoir on my 2010 and I didn't flush the fluid throught the clutch but I did make sure there was no air in the lines as I filled it up. But once I did get it all hooked up and filled with fluid. When I compress the clutch the fluid would shoot out of the vent on the reservoir. At first I thought I may have had to much oil as there was not a level line. But after the install I could tell the difference in shifting. I did not have any problems going into 2cnd on high RPMs. But after several months I was driving one day and my clutch stuck to the floor. I took it to the dealer. Explained to them what I had done and the mechanic looked at it the next day and told me I had air in the system but it was caused by the fluid going out the vent and allowing air to get in??? Do you believe this? They connected it back to stock and it shifts different now. I was wondering if any one can give me there opinion on this. I may have just messed up by not flushing the fluid properly and it eventually migrated into the clutch? What do ya'll think?
