Ned,

I modified my Eezibleed slightly to get a better seal. The reservoir cap 
gasket was not laying flat due to the
layout of the siphon or pressure hose (which ever is closer to the edge) 
so I cut/punched a small "mousehole"
relief in the gasket. I always test the system first without any fluid, 
use low pressure (8-12 psi) from a spare
tire and only lightly tighten the reservoir cap ... just enough to get a 
seal. Only after testing that the brake reservoir
is sealing do I  remove pressure and add brake fluid to the Eezibleed 
bottle.  If you determine that you need to
change the cap or try another type of bleeder, the following 
instructions may be helpful http://www.bmw-m.net/TechProc/bleeder.htm

Cheers,
John
