Hey guys, thanks for the info! Sounds dead on! These whackjobs at BP I'm sure crunched the res. That was my first assumption, since the problem didn't develop until AFTER the water pump was replaced and they would have to have gone over the res. to remove belts and replace the water pump and replace the belts. How can I check for a crack? The hoses/seals don't look dry-rotted and I can't find a crack in the res... A little frustrated here...
I need a little clarity on one thing: For the next few days, can I use DOT 3 fluid? I can't find DOT 4 anywhere!
Hopefully it's not the mas. cyl. and hopefully I don't have to bleed! Damn hack mechanics. If it hadn't been an emergency (when the water pump failed on the freeway!), I would never have taken it to these losers... I was afraid they didn't know how to work on my "baby" and it turns out I was right. Wish I had the tools and a towtruck to do it myself now! ;)
Thanks again!
Barry
