I think if you remove the reservoir cap, stretch plastic wrap over the
opening and then replace the cap, essentially closing the vent hole to
create a vacuum, you will not lose any fluid. Don't forget to remove the
plastic wrap when you finish the replacement of the switch :-). Even if you
do lose some fluid, it's up stream of the wheel cylinders, so most likely
you won't have to bleed the system.

Guys,
Here I am all ready to go to the TRA National meeting and a light check on
the TR3B reveals no brake lights at all.  Everything else is normal.  The
TR4 is a little better, brake lights come on if you stomp on the pedal.  No
I do not have any spare switches.
 If I can get a couple of those by Tuesday do any of you know if I will need
to bleed the brakes after I install them?  Any other ideas on what to
check??
Thanks,
Darrell
