    When my clutch slave cylinder blew out, I think I got brake fluid on the clutch disc. I remember on the way home from Red Creek the clutch started slipping a bit. I figured it'd eventually just give up on me but it seemed to just start back working. I decided that I had just gotten brake fluid on it from the cylinder blow out and that it had dried itself up.

    Then during the install of the new slave cylinder and the blow out of the new slave cylinder I apparently got even more brake fluid on the clutch. I figured since it dried itself out the first time that it would dry out the second time but this time the slipping seems to be sticking with me. It has gotten a bit better but it's still slipping a bit.

    Anyone got any comments? Is it going to dry out eventually? Or is it toasted and I'm going to have to replace the disc.
