I took cap from old MC or even new one and drilled a tap for 1/4 pipe,then used a compression fitting to apply air and fluid,,when done ,just removed the comp fitting and put a 1/4 pipe plug in BE SURE TO DRILL A SMALL VENT HOLE IN PIPE PLUG!!
I think I used another gasket on cap and really tightened it so no leaked,, couldn’t get it loose ,that why I left it there and used pipe plug,
Like Mart said be prepared forleakes,,,after you get itplumed up ,just put about 15# air to see if it holds pressure before putting fluid in container,,
I made my own bottle with a gauge and valve and reg,,worked great,best brakes I ever had on 35
