John,

It is leaking around the fill cap? If yes what is the inner diameter? I wou=
ld look for a flat EPDM rubber washer. I don=92t know the TR2 so perhaps th=
at=92s not an option.

Listers,
My original MC has been professionally rebuilt.  The MC has been installed =
for 6 mo. but only driven about 8 =93test=94 miles.  The MC leaks around th=
e seal...and I=92m using Dot 3. The filler cap is installed on the back sid=
e at the exit pipes per the manual.  I=92ve read somewhere that the reservo=
ir should not be filled completely, but don=92t remember the exact criteria=
.  Also, would changing to a cork gasket help?  Is cork compatible with Dot=
 3?  I understand that this is a common problem, but I=92d like to reduce t=
he problem to something like a weep.  Thanks.
John DeLuca
