If no joy with mineral oil try cooking oil, olive oil or ATF.
Have used cooking oil before for quite a while when I was stuck. Hope it helps. Dave. |

I would imagine the cooking oil, corn oil, olive oil all will work for quite some time. I have also heard that fork oil will work. I tossed my KTM clutch slave in the trash for just this reason.

Citroen hydraulic fluid will also work.
After that episode, I replaced it with a slave from Oberon -excellent. Hope this helps |

Citroen hydraulic fluid and baby oil are the two alternatives that I have heard of. Hope you get sorted soon.
