Underbonnet brake Reservoir

Post by Willie »

My plastic underbonnet brake reservoir has always suffered from seepage from around the top. I suddenly realised that the spring clip
which holds it in position was tight, very tight, enough to make removing the reservoir for cleaning etc quite difficult. It may have been that it so tight that it could slightly distort the plastic body so I have opened out the bracket arms to suit.

Willie what type of reservoir is it by that I mean why type of outlet does it have one of the angled plastic ones or a proper metal connection, just wondering.
