Subject: Re: silicon brake fluid


I was told by an army mechanic that the system must be clear of the glycol based fluid. He told me the easiest way is to replace all of the lines, although it doesn't seem easier. Because the silicon based fluid will gel up if it contacts the glycol fluid and gum it up bad. -- Pierre Chiasson Oromocto, N.B. , Canada NOSPAMpchiassonopsamt.nb.ca Remove NOSPAM when replying J.
