Guys, Here I am all ready to go to the TRA National meeting and a light check on the TR3B reveals no brake lights at all. Everything else is normal. The TR4 is a little better, brake lights come on i

Darrell My guess is you are running Dot5 in your system? That is what I think created the same problem in my 3A - brakes would only light if I stomped on them, sensitivity was lost. My solution was s

I think if you remove the reservoir cap, stretch plastic wrap over the opening and then replace the cap, essentially closing the vent hole to create a vacuum, you will not lose any fluid. Don't forge

Not sure I follow the logic of the Dot 5 fluid - I've used this in at least a dozen cars I've restored and have never had an issue because of it. I have, however, learned that the mechanical pressure

I'm not sure there is logic involved, but there is some evidence - 3 cars in my club, including mine have experienced this. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but it seems too coincidental to have

Hey Guys, I did get a switch from Napa, the only one they had in the general area last Tuesday and put it in the 3B, the lights worked well but I carried thru with a brake bleed just to be sure. The
