Just wondered if this is normal?
If I disconnect the clutch cable I get a little bit of a transmission fluid leak around the clutch rod.
It stops as soon as I put a little tension on the clutch arm.
thanks

Inside the boot it`s a spring which keeps the boot sealing surface thight against the clutch arm.
When you move the clutch arm backwards you got less pressure from the spring,
and also get a incorrect angle on the spring vs. clutch arm (less pressure on top, than bottom).
