What is it?

[claymike]

I have a stream about ¼” wide of thick oil which is odor free running down the driver side floor mat. It is right in the middle of the brake and clutch pedals. This stuff is very thick and sticky?? What the heck is it? No leaks that I can see in the engine compartment.

It's likely either a brake or clutch master cylinder leak. If your truck is still under warranty, you should take it back to the dealer. This is a tedious repair (if that's what it is), but it's not that difficult. If you look up under the dash, you should be able to see specifically where it's coming from.

Mine does not have a stream, but the brake master cylinder is definitely leaking. I'm waiting until I have almost 36k before taking it in for the brake problem, warm a/c on the passenger side, and the door seal problem.

Not sure what thick oil like substance would be above the clutch or brake pedals but it could be fluid from either the clutch mastercylinder or the hydroboost system for the brakes combined with some of the sealers used around the holes in the firewall ? If it has a red tint then it's the hydroboost and if it lets go it will empty your power steering system as well as the brake boost system, I've never seen or even heard of one just blowing out, just leaking and making a mess of things. (I'm sure there are others on here with more experience that can add more help) if it's clear then it's the clutch master all you will loose is the use of the clutch. Either way I'd get it checked asap wy mess up the inside of a great truck
