- Hi Gang, I've discovered a brake fluid leak at the rear cylinder/reservoir seal. When I rebuild the cylinder now that I've got it out, has anyone got any suggestions about ways to improve this seal?

- I've been running DOT 5 for several years now. NO issues! No paint issues, either. Before making the switch from DOT 3, my PDWA leaked onto the frame and adjoining area. By the time I discovered the

- My HDVA 5 speed conversion comes with a hydraulic T/O bearing and the manufacturer, Quarter Master, states that using DOT5 will void the warranty. Previous to using the Quarter Master T/O bearing, HD

- I've used DOT 5 in the HDVA conversion but can't remember if it's the McLeod or Quarter Master system. Also have the Apple calipers and M/C with DOT 5. Both were started from new with DOT 5. No probl

- My experience with Dot 5, it dissolved all the rubber parts in my brake master and clutch slave. Dot 4 for me from now on. I also have no use for the nylatron suspension bushings I just removed. Goin

- For what its worth, I have owned at least 30 British cars over the last 25 years. About 15 years ago, I started using Valvoline Synthetic brake fluid. I can say that I have never lost any paint due t

- The only sure fix was a new Lucas/TRW master cylinder assembly that I filled without hesitation with DOT 5. TRW also voids the warranty on the DOT 3. In my past life we released DOT 3 because of the

- I won't get into the debate on fluid... it's been done in the past, check the archives. But I will offer the following: I've rebuilt a few M/C's and prety much everything hydraulic on my cars, and i

- Interesting. My experience has been exactly the opposite. Reliable service for over three years now. Wonder why the difference? Did you convert by simply doing a purge, or were your orings and seals
