I think 1000, but that was like 4500 posts ago so I can't really remember.

Don't use epoxy on your breaks. That's just a bad idea.

Where is the leak? It is very common for them to leak where the resevoir meets the master cylinder. Buying a new one won't necessarily fix the problem, beause you will probably have to move the resevoir over to the new master cylinder, and that will cause the leak to start all over again.

What I do to fix this is to simply use two large hose clamps to tightly (but not too tight) clamp the resevoir down to the master cylinder. Totally stops the leaks. This fix can be credited to BamBam7.

If the leak is between the reservoir and the cylinder you can replace the rubber grommets in between, available from Mazda. It's a cheap fix.good luck.
