Master cylinder leak question?

[mikedevore]

I seem to be leaking brake fluid from the master cap to the point it is dripping out.
Anyone know what causing this.
It seems to be pushing it out from under the cover.
Suggestions?

Since no one has answered you yet, I thought I'd throw this out there.
Under normal conditions a new cover seal or a little less fluid level should stop it.

Have you hit the tension strap,with a screwdriver? Stretches the strap out,loses tension every time you do it. Just a off the wall thought.

I bent the lid retainer to put more pressure to seal the lid.
Also lowered the level.
Will test drive it tomarrow & recheck.
Thanks.

Are your brakes squishy? If you need to bleed your brakes, whenever you let off the brake, the compressed air pushes fluid back into the M/C as a little squirt up into the M/C cover then it drips down the pentroofed cover. Take cover off and cycle the brakes a few times and check it out.
