Just need to know how hard it would be to fix a leak in my clutch fluid hose. It holds fluid ok during warm weather but when the temp drops I have to fill it every morning. I can't find where its leaking and there is no fluid spots on the ground. Also the ABS light stays on almost all the time. What troubles me is when it goes off my brakes dont hold. As soon as this happens the light comes back on and the brakes are fine. Any Ideas?

The clutch fluid hose would have to be replaced, but you should check on theparts first, some of those S-10 clutch lines came with the clutch master cylinder attached, you couldnt get them seperatly.Other than that, you simply replace the line and bleed the system. As far as the ABS goes, you will need to have thesystem scanned for the codes it is storing to see why it is turning on the light.There are far too many things to just guess at what it may be
