SS 5 speed clutch fluid??

I have noticed my clutch doesn't have the same resistance as it had before. Where can I check the clutch fluid, is the brake fluid also used as the clutch fluid?

I didn't say the brake and clutch master cylinder had separate reservoirs.

Misunderstanding on my part.

Yeah, I said separate master cylinders, not separate reservoirs. I don't see what the problem is.
