I already removed the lever, cleaned the nut/bolt (that is visible in the picture) but it did not solve the problem. I also mean that rubber boot thing which Easy has mentioned. There must be a spring or something behind that which pushes the lever away or the brake fluid does that job.

If we cannot change or access the inside of rubber boot, probably the new brake fluid will do the job.

By the way how do we know that brake fluid is bad or need a change. I never changed or added the brake fluid since I bought the mc in 2005.

Thanks
