The reason I ask is it was unbolted and leaked everywhere.
Isit clutch fluid or what?
Says dot 4 brake fluid?
By the battery.

The round black cap is on the clutch fluid reservoir.

Have you read the hand book that came wth the car?

No handbook came with the car and I currently can't find the manual.
If I just top it up doesn't need bleeding right?
It just leaked out where it had no bolt on it. So no leaks.

Top it with DOT 4 brake fluid and it won't need bleeding.
