hi all i have had my starlet about two weeks not and have been loving it. but the other day i was driving it and the cluch pedal got lower and lower like i was pushing air not fluid, i got a mate to help me bleed it and it spat out some air but no fluid. so i drained the reservoir to find the old fluid was mainly a grey cloudy gunge so i replaced it with new fluid and now it wont bleed even with a pressure bleeder either way. so im sure i have a blockage somewhere. any ideas would be great - the reservoir looks like a right bastard to get off so any tips would be greatly appreciated.
thanks for reading

sounds like the seals in the master cylinder have broken up the grey colour will be particles of rubber

Don't they sell the rebuild kits over there? As in new rubbers an pistons for the both slave an master clutch cylinders? All u'll need is a fine grade of sandpaper to give inside the cylinder walls a little rub an install new cylinder kit
