Slight leal on slave clutch cylinder housing

Hi,

Getting a slight leak from where the clutch slave cylinder meets the banjo, i have a copper washer between the bolt as per the photo, should i have a copper washer also at the other end where the leak is, you can just see the fluid seeping in the photo and the bolt is tight,

Regards,

Martyn.
Another little job i need to sort to get the Marcos back on the road.....

I'd say yes - one either end. If re-using copper washers, heat them to red hot in a gas flame and quench in cold water. This puts them to the soft state.

yes, you should always have a washer on both sides of a banjo.
