Thanks, Bouymaker.
Unfortunately, you couldn’t carry enough brake fluid to keep a reservoir filled at the rate fluid was pouring out! The only thing weeping was me!
I’m frankly puzzled how a designer would conclude the most efficacious way to alert me of a malfunctioning proportioning valve is to purposefully induce a catastrophic failure of the whole system. Now, if the “weep hole” led to a pressure switch that would turn on the dash brake light… THAT would make sense!
Meanwhile, I already bought a solid brass replacement without this “feature” and installed it.
