check the clutch slave cylinder, usually located mounted on the front of the block where your engine stamp is. "clutch fluid" is essentially brake fluid located in the resevoir near the top right. fill it with some dot 3/4 brake fluid and if it still continues to drop after driving for awhile or you feel your clutch start to get weak replace the cylinder. Cost about 8 dollars and is very simple if you're not a moron. make sure you bleed it correctly because that probaby caused the issue in the first place.

Ok I know how to pull and bleed one now but I'm not that positive that that is what's leaking.... Should I be able to see it leaking? There is oil over on the air cleaner box and I'm not sure what might Nxt diagnosis. Step d be?

Kinda funny, I just changed my slave today, I was gonna make a DIY for it since it's simple and I wasn't in a hurry so I took some pics haha, I'll do it now but it's pretty simple to figure out yourself.

Depending on where on the air box, that'd be quite the jump for oil. Definitely post clear pictures.
