Fluid Problems!!!!!!!!!!Help

hey guys i have a 95 f150 with a 5 speed trans in it!!!!!! I have been driving one now for about 3 months and am not the best at it.................i can drive around town all day fine but i think i ride the clutch a little more than i should. The little thing that holds the brake fluid for the clutch i have to fill up like every week, some mornings i have to or it wont go into gear!!!!!! What is the problem u guys think its cause i ride the clutch a little too much which uses up the fluid or something may be mechanically wrong with it!!!!!!! Please give me your opinion i know i may ride the clutch a little too much but dam every week having to fill that thing up!!!!!!! Thx guys!!!!!

Riding the clutch will wear out the bearing and disc but has nothing to do with fluid loss. You have a bad leak somewhere in the clutch system - master or slave cyl, lines and hose etc.

I agree with 01screw. Normal wear and tear will deplete the fluid over time. If you are losing that much fluid that quickly you have a serious leak somewhere. With it losing that much fluid that quick you should be albe to easily find the leak.
