I do have to ask this: why do people put rags/socks/zip ties around the brake fluid reservoir cap????

I know *why* people do it.. but why not correct the problem? instead of putting a band aid on it?

Two words: Turkey Baster!! PULL SOME FLUID OUT!! Run it where the top piece meets the bottom piece!!

The issue is: people see low fluid, so they ADD fluid ??? YOUR PADS ARE WORN!! LOL when you install new pads?? what happens?? the FLUID raises up past the full point!! then spills over when heated!!

Rant over I've never run the socks/sweat bands/rags.. never..
