Doesn't it always happen this way? I was replacing the tires on my wife's TR-6 and since I never liked the way the brakes felt, I figured I would bleed them to be sure while I had it on jack stands. That led to the discovery the rubber lines in the rear were shot which fouled both wheel cylinders. Got everything replaced and then started to bleed the system. Ended up having to remove the MC because I could not get it to begin pumping fliud and bench bled it, after I tried all the other techniques on loosening the lines to no avail. In the process of looking at it on the bench, I could see the spring on the tip over valve was not right so I had to remove the reservoir from the cylinder. Sure enough, the clip was off the valve. No problem, everything back together without any problems!
Now it is all back together but I cannot get the dang reservoir to stop seeping between the tank and top of the cylinder. I put a thin layer of red grease on the rubber seals when I re-assembled everything thinking that would help. I had re-tightened the bolts as tight as I can but still leaks a little, not bad, but bad enough.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to re-seal the reservoir? I have loosened the screws, wiggled it on the cylinder and re-tightened but still no luck.
