Echo Tr Lever. Leaking?

i went for a ride this sunday, kept winding my tpa in cos my brakes were wank...

then noticed fluid on my fork leg. TPA went all the way in before brake would work...

my mate said it was leaking because the TPA was all the way in and fluid could just go past the piston?

im not so sure. anyhow heres a pic..

the fluid is coming from where the tpa meets the piston in the lever.

anyone had similar problems?

by the way im running magura royal blood bleed, but its an old bleed.

i have new fluid on the way. anyone think it could just need a new bleed?

oh and also at the moment theres barely any fluid in there.. and when the lever is pulled fast it makes the same rank squelching sound of someone having a wank in the bath.

hahaha sounds like a load of air in it then.....new bleed time.

tried granville lhm mineral oil? i use that in my discs and its sweet as think its same as royal blood only a fraction of the cost.
