    One more question on brake M/C

    I actually did a search this time to see if I could find the answer first, but couldn't. I've got to do a thorough clean job on both of my master cylinders, and I've been sitting here trying to figure out how to get the reservoir off of the m/c. I can grab it and move it around a little bit, and I can pry it up a little. I don't want to bust the reservoir by being too heavy handed, so can someone tell me how to get the darn things off.

    make sure that you take the metal plate thing off of the inside, then slowly pry up with a small flat screwdriver. Hit it from all sides a little at a time. A little twistig action helps.

      As Travis said. Also... two small screwdrivers attacking it from opposite sides
