I must say, I've never come across anyone in a news group as anal retentive as you are. Although it goes against my nature, I'll briefly lower myself to your level for a moment. >>> Do you have any documentation that shows that your theory applies >>> to Saab brake systems? You have made the assumption that I wrote that this advice applies specifically to Saabs. Re-read my post and you will not find that statement. Unlike you, who apparently is unable to repair or diagnose without a factory manual, I try to utilize what are known as "best practices" when working on autos. In this case, I spend 5 seconds on a reasonable action that is certain to prevent a possible problem. A certain problem? Who knows - but why risk it? You, OTOH, are apparently so hidebound in your "by the book" attitude that you are unwilling to accept the "best practice" approach. God Lord, don't let me by corrupted by logical thinking! I might learn something! Now, let's flip your arrogant demand for "proof" around - why don't you show me where my advice is discouraged in your Holy Factory Manual. You seem to be saying that unless it is "in the book" it shouldn't be done. Well, if you new anything about auto repairs, the "book ain't the final word", now is it? Ask any successful mechanic if he does all of his repair jobs step-by-step from the manual and he'll look at you like you're crazy. Just because a short-cut or a new approach isn't officially "sanctioned" by the manufacturer doesn't mean it isn't efficient, reasonable, unsafe or an improvement. After reviewing your many pompous posts on this board, it's obvious that most of your pique is directed at the fact that someone actually has the temerity to disagree with you. Oh My God - I seem to have stepped upon the toes of the Grand Poobah of Saabdom. Time for you to get a life my friend. >>And please don't top-post, it fucks up the flow of the conversation Top posted for your reading pleasure.
