[s-cars] High pressure hydraulic line

[Kirby Smith]

Y'all need to do the test outlined in the Bentley to check whether it is
the check valve in the bomb that is leaking, or the master brake
cylinder booster that is leaking.  In either case, you will be spending
some bucks to get the light to go out quicker.  I decided not to
bother.  In any case, be sure that your fluid is clean (i.e., high
pressure hose is not deteriorating inside) and the filter in the
hydraulic reservoir is clean.  Pull it and use "brake clean" (away from
your paint) to flush it out.  Do this regularly.  You may find it speeds
up the light.
