[QUOTE="D-50Dave, post: 214136, member: 4936"] When I assemble the MC, it certainly looks like the rubber cap over the spring and maybe even the rubber on the plunger are between the hole of the reservoir and the bottom leading to the brake line. I removed the plastic where the reservoir hose mounts and found a second divot. It seems solid bottomed. Is it supposed to be open going somewhere? [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSC02493.JPG"]19247._xfImport[/ATTACH] The hole on the left is clear and goes through to the main chamber. I get the nagging feeling I've got one of the 2 pieces of rubber in the main chamber placed/oriented wrong. Does the rubber over the spring cup down to the BL or up towards the rod? Does the rubber on the central plunger float in the middle or get pushed over the metal lip in the middle to anchor it at one end? Thank you for your help and encouragement. At this point, if I could buy a new whole unit, I'd just do that instead of struggle. [/QUOTE]
