Re: Silicone Servo

[Alvin and Lucille Johnson <johnson@ids.net>]

If you had converted to silicone when you rebuilt the servo, it would
have lasted virtually forever. The water-absorbing properties of
conventional brake fluid introduce corrosion to the cheap pot metal
internal bores, and failure results. Tiger Tom rebuilt my servo about 15
years ago, and it still soldiers on, fueled by silicone.
