Hello all:
Several weeks ago, I attempted to take my 70B out for a quick spin
after it had sat in my garage for two months or so. The brake pedal,
however, failed to inspire confidence by quickly pushing all the way
down to its stop. After the customary bouncing of the forehead
against the steering wheel as a gesture of supplication, I checked the
master cylinder fluid level. There was very little fluid left.
After this, I checked the brake cylinder for each wheel, plus checked
brake lines under the car. I could find no evidence of leakage. A
check underneath the master cylinder both in the engine compartment
and under the dash also revealed nothing.
So can MGB's "use" brake fluid? I must confess I haven't checked my
brake fluid level in over a year (wince).
Thanks in advance for your advice!
