[Healeys] Remote reservoir cap

[Kees Oudesluijs]

I have used Eesybleed for donkey's years to my satisfaction. The only 
downside are the caps that are supplied with the kit. Older kits had 
weak aluminium or thin plated steel caps that did not hold well and 
could fly of the brake fluid reservoir. I think they improved on that 
nowadays.

That is why I used  modified original caps for some of the cars I have had.
