I know a TR/6 owner who opened his bleeder valves, filled his master
cyclinder with DoT 5, pumped the system until nothing but # 5 came through,
buttoned it up and drove for the next 8 years with never-ever a problem,
normal small leaks and he never changed one piece of braking equipment on
his car before doing this, nothing, no rubber parts, nothing, just the
fluid, still has the car, and has now replaced the rear cyclinders I think
is what he said to me last week at VTR in Florida, "hint", he writes
sometimes about electrics, lot of myths about fluifs. "FT"
