About 6 mo ago there was a thread about the PM. Someone responded with a comment about filling the reservoir, that there was a way to overfill it, and the proper way of filling the reservoir. Who was it, and what was the comment. What is the proper filling of the reservoir?

Larry,
If the tank is full and you turn on the ignition, the pump pressurizes the
accumulator and takes down the level in the tank. If you fill it up again,
turn off the power, and then pump the brakes, the accumulator discharges and
overfills the tank. When it overfills it will run out on the ground. The
PO on my GMC put a bunch of sealer on the lid to stop the leak, didn't help.
Regards,
