OOOOOR

 

1.) STEP 1 - first, find the leak.

2.) STEP 2 - second, wrap vigorously with duct tape

3.) STEP 3 - third, rubber cement everything that you have duct taped, all the ends of the duct tape and all of the openings and whatnot.

4.) STEP 4 - (optional) fourth, add a second layer of duct tape, making sure to wrap tightly around the brake line.

Most of the time if you have a loss of brake fluid, it usually comes from the pistons of the caliper itself and leaking slowly. Sometimes you don't see the brake fluid dripping down the calipers itself because they leak slowly and you will only see them leaking if you remove the brake pads.

 

If you have a manual tranny, some clutch is assisted by hydraulic and is tied together with the brake reservoir and uses the same brake fluid. Follow the clutch line coming from the brake fluid reservoir to the clutch itself and usually the drivers side carpet would be damp.

u can see the flued when i wake up all over the driveway next to my driversdie rear tire n drippin down the wheel to

 

It might be coming out of the caliper. Pull the wheel off and take a look!

There was fluid dribbling out of the little hole in the middle of the caliper piston on the rear brakes of many W-bodies that I work on, which is why a simple pad change on the rear brakes usually ends up with me having to replace the calipers too. I hate 88-93 rear calipers.
