Default When it Rains, It Pours

Well if this weekend could not have been worst. I wake up this morning and get ready to go to class and my motorcycle is missing from its parking spot. I check the apartment complex, no bike...great. So a call the police...fill out a report. If I don't get it back I'll be pissed but I have insurance. I just have to deal with them trying to dick me around with the valve of the bike.

But I'm glad I also have a car, so I go inside grab my keys and head to my car. I notice fluid leaking by my transmission...great. Well I'm already 30 minutes late for class, time to figure out whats wrong with my car. Well I notice that my slave cylinder is leaking fluid. I look at it more and it looks like its the original one from the factory. I gave them a new slave cylinder to put in when I got my clutch put in about 300 miles ago, can't look that bad in 300 miles. So I push my clutch pedal in and I hear the wonderful noise of fluid pouring on the ground.

So Im pissed. One stolen bike and one 240sx that won't move. I have always believed bad things happen in three's. So I guess I going to get hit by a bus next.

Damn, that really sucks.

I remember when my slave went out, I was driving on McMullen, and all of a sudden I lost clutch pressure. I had to change it in a Sweet-bay parking lot, with 3 cops constantly creeping by me, and the manager walking out every 10-15 minutes.

Oh, and sorry to hear about the bike, hopefully insurance will cut you a decent check.

Damn Casey, that is really shitty. Hopefully there wont be too much red tape when dealing with insurance. And, I'd go back to whoever serviced the clutch and ask them WTFMATE!?

Good luck with it all bro!

Slave cylinder is a pretty easy fix. You can do it in the parking lot without a jack.
