Ripped my powermaster reservoir off taking the motor out!

[Intercooler]

Jacking the motor out of the car today the motor hung up on the powermaster reservoir (plastic) and pulled it out. Damn fluid went all over. I tried to push it back in with no luck. What is the trick to getting it back in?

I offer 2 hopes: Bob, and none. Go to Carparts.com and get the whole sh!teroo for $199 exchange. HTH

Reservoir Installation: Lay the reservoir top side down on a clean piece of cardboard. Lubricate two new grommets and install them in place of the old ones in the housing. (brake fluid is the lubricant). Then push the housing down over the reservoir.


Now since yours is still in the car I would line the thing up and lube it with fresh brake fluid and slowly lower and guide the reservoir onto the master cylinder. Might have to pop it on after it starts to go on straight. Straight is real important.
