| Well, from my opinion, DOT5 rolled the paint off my TR when the clutch 
master started leaking.  This is a vintage roadster that is now gonna 
cost me several grand to have that portion of the engine compartment 
re-done.  Hey, I'm sucking it up and I love to work on my car as much as 
everyone else, but there does come a time when you wind up spinning your 
wheels per se......  Like I said, I love my car, I love working on it, 
but time is money and I hate wasting time.....
