Hydraulic clutch problem, help

[nikfubar]

Fitted one of these hydraulic clutch conversions & there's a problem with the seals



I only bought the slave cylinder not the whole kit & there were no instructions with it. Others have asked me what hydraulic fluid I'd used as the instructions say to use mineral oil shit I used dot 4 now I think the seals are going as the oil has discolored & the slave is making a squelching noise.

So I Have a couple of questions
1. You sell the kits Norbo, do you know if replacement seals are available.
2. If not anyone know a good place to get replacement O rings for hydraulics.
3. If I can't use dot4 is there any other type of fluid which is compatible for a master that's designed to use dot 4 & a slave that's designed to use mineral oil

TIA

If I am right in thinking on MX stuff they run Mineral / Hydraulic oil because the slave cylinder runs into the box so if it leaks there wont be no problems.

With the seals should be able to find a Hydraulic/Plumbers/fitting shop local and match them up. Where did you get the kit from Nick?

Nick, I have the full kit, do you want me to get the exact info off the bottle?
