Wtf were the engineers smoking when they came up with the design for where the hydraulic clutch line connects to the slave cylinder and master cylinder? The o ring blew out of the fitting that goes into the slave last week. Now that I fixed it, the same thing happens where it enters the master cyl. Whats the deal? Anyone else have problems? Why wouldn't they just use threaded fittings instead of the stupid roll pin garbage?
Just need to vent.

Yeap weird, I didn't have that problem at, In fact I split my master cylinder right down the middle (twice even) when I had my problems and never blew the line or O ring.
