Same reservoir.

Yep same res, just changed my brake fluid last month and figured that out too.

There's a tube going from the brake MC reservoir to the clutch MC.

It's set up so that if you're losing fluid for some reason with the clutch, the brakes should not run out of fluid due to how high the tube going to the clutch is on the MC reservoir.

So if you're bleeding your clutch, pay attention to that and do not allow the level to drop below that tube on the brake MC reservoir or you'll start admitting air into the system.

Interesting, so there is still a clutch mc. Is it somewhere behind/under the battery?

I might just give it a lil bleed, curious to see what comes out.

The clutch master cylinder is under the battery. There are a few videos online of people replacing them, but bleeding the clutch is towards the front of the car from the clutch slave.

What are you trying to accomplish exactly and what prompted this?

New owner, looking around. 3rd day with this car. I change my clutch fluid regularly on all my cars for the past decades.
