Bill: Before you spring for a replacement MC, you might want to check the
seal/o-ring between the fluid reservoir and the body of the MC.
I had fluid running down the front of the booster also, and I replaced the
MC,, and later found that it was only the seal, which I could have
replaced for a few cents.
Might be worth a look.
