My clutch slave cylinder failed last summer and I found the boot was full of fluid, but not leaking. If it's oily around there then you need a new cylinder.

I found a light, slightly oily (like brake/clutch fluid) greenish, but not like coolant-green, puddle on the ground under my van this morning. I'd guess a table spoon +. It drips slowly from the slave cylinder/release lever area. That's the part on the van that's wet. Drips onto the Syncro skid plate, then onto the ground. My reservoir under the dash hood is at max and was just above that before going on a recent long trip. Any ideas? TIA, Bob Stevens
