- Just a short note. Why is it that there are many who believe that fluids are compressible? Well, in a gas, there is a lot of room between the molecules for them to get closer together with increasin

- Steve You are correct as to the cause of a "mushy" brake pedal. However, the compressibility of water is a factor of interest to others than just molecular biologists: naval architects, especially th

- Well, actually, silicone fluids are compressible, sufficiently so that they are used as liquid springs in may applications. Granted, they don't compress much, but are more so that other fluids...

- I looked into the question of hydraulic fluid compressibility a little and found out there is general agreement that silicone brake fluids are two to three times as compressible as DOT 3 or DOT 4. H

- For all of you that are going to run out and mash the pedals on their cars (not me - it got UP to 0F today), get someone else to watch or put a hand on the master cylinder such that you can feel if i
