There is a small over flow tube from the hydraulic reservoir that permits the hydraulic oil to drain or overflow into the clutch bell housings. Can this be blocked or plugged off? or does anyone do anything different with this? I really don't want oil to ever get in there and mess up my clutch.

Thanks Jim.

Don't over fill your reservoir. It is a breather for your hyd. reservoir. MACK

further to what Mack said, make sure the hole is not plugged so that it does allow the resevoir to breathe.
