The plastic reservoir had apparently warped until it no longer pressed firmly against the seal, so I carefully sanded it back flat, cleaned and reassembled. Worked great for me. I'm probably paranoid, but I won't use any sort of sealant on brake fittings. Hylomar uses a solvent that is likely not good for brake seals. I don't know what modern "sensor safe" silicone RTVs emit, but I'll bet there is something. -- Randall |
