Great, that eliminates the oil, i don't believe oil goes bad over three months if ever but the question needed to be asked, thanks for the quick and comprehensive reply.
Not sure if a slave cylinder leak could push fluid into the engine oil past the pushrod but if it did the oil will have to be replaced, even twice to prevent serious damage to bearings etc.
If you are going to look at the slave cylinder and replace the fluid if it was me i would push the piston in so as to push out as much old fluid as possible, from memory there is a spring inside the clutch slave cylinder attempting to eliminate any play between the pushrod and clutch basket, just so you are aware of this, cheers.
