Vanatics, Today I discovered a hydraulic fluid leak from the clutch slave cylinder on my 1987 Syncro. Normally the van is in warm weather (in Southern California), but I'm currently in Spokane Washington where the temperature is below freezing. I suspect that the cold weather has caused a seal (or seals) to contract and allow the leak. Since I'm away from home, I'm not prepared to crawl around in the snow under the van to repair it myself. I plan to take it to a shop (likely the dealer) and see what they'll carge for repair. Questions: 1. Does my premilinary diagnosis sound like the likely cause, or is there something else more likely? 2. If it is a leaky seal, what needs to be done to repair it? Rebuild by replacing wear components? Replace? 3. What is this repair likely to cost? Thanks, Jim Davis
