Home -> Vans Air Force topic: Leaking brake fluid

Author: Chuck Bass <cbass233@...> Time: Sun Mar 21, 2004 9:39 am PST Link

I've been doing a bunch of inverted flight in my 4 lately and had to stop because the brake fluid
reservoir leaks when it's upside down.  Is there a different reservoir that doesn't have this
problem? Other solutions?

Have you tried the "Reservoir Dog" that Alex Peterson sells? It's a fitting
for the top of your reservoir with an integrated ball bearing/seal
mechanism. Seals when upside down, ventilates when right side up.
