stopping brake fluid loss???
Going to remove front 4 pots to upgrade, but they will be off the car for a week. How do i limit the amount of fluid loss during this time,cant use hose clamp as braided lines fitted, the brake pedal will not be pressed after removal so will it just weep from lines or **** out all over the floor!!!

If you leave the cap on the resevoir, it should reduce loss (same effect as if you put your finger on top of a straw in a drink and lift it out...) but you'll still get drips.
Wrap end of your hoses in rag.

If you depress the brake pedal and wedge it down you shouldn't lose any.....
Failing that put polythene over the brake fluid resivoir and put the cap back on that also works to an extent!
