Brake Master Cylinder Leak??
When checking under the hood of the '94 every so often, I notice some
brake leakage ON and AROUND the top of the BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER.
What could the reason be for the leakage? Would replacing the TOP solve the problem? Thanks in advance.

If you keep it to the max level they do seem to lose a little through the breather hole in the in the cap from time to time(I would think braking hard on a hot day etc)I have a new master and cap and it does it.As long as it isn't excessive I don't think its a problem.If your fluid is going down you obviously do have a problem.Hopefully someone who knows for sure will chime in,I'm guessing.
