    I had the same problem with my 142 when I upgraded my brakes. The leak seemed to be coming from that plug on the bottom of the master cylinder. I took the plug out and the fitting and spun up a piece of nylon and jammed it up the hole. It doesnt seem to be leaking anymore! You could just get a new master cylinder or get a rebuild kit?

    What celica calipers etc etc, sorry my mind reading is a bit slow at the end of the day.What the hell does foamish{is it a religion?} mean. is it making a mess out the top of the resivour or is it leaking in other places?
    There is some very smart people on here, but not even einstein is that smart.
