List, has anybody refurbished a TR3 brake fluid reservoir? I've got  
one apart, I was surprised it came apart. The can looks good but it  
leaked past the fittings on the bottom. It appears that the aluminum  
washers have given up the fight. Could I use copper washers instead?  
Also, there is a large (1 inch OD) washer on the brake side, inside  
the can, but the clutch chamber did not have a washer. Does it just  
seal to the bottom inside of the can using its rim as a washer. Seems  
a bit iffy. I was thinking of putting a washer there, also. Any help/ 
ideas/advice is appreciated.
