Ugh I'm whittling down my collection. Down to just 2 old Benzes now, from 4 last year.

I can only fit so much in a 2 car garage! One of mine is even stored in another state!

Good point, thank you. Fortunately I discovered it before much seemed to spill out. Also lucky that it was beautiful dry weather. Question though: Am I going to need to bleed again with the reservoir being open a few days? I know it absorbs moisture, not sure what the threshold would be, though.

I might do this today. Over the weekend, all of the yards in my general area are closed. Stupid, right? Last I'd called around nobody had a W123 in, but there should be some others I could pull from. Hm...
