As advised below, replace the check valves for a couple of bucks each. If the reservoir is cracked, leave it in place. It usually cracks at the point on the reservoir where the two mounting posts on the inward side attach to the frame. Vibration cases a crack around the base of the post. Clean with Brakeclean or some alchohol and use RTV silicone or epoxy to cover the area around the base of the posts on the reservoir. Just slather it on and get good coverage, no one will ever see it.
It takes a couple of hours at least to remove that bottle as the mounting nuts are in an impossible to access spot. Search the board for this one, I've posted the repair along with others before.
