Reply to "Slave cylinder"

Twenty years ago, I was into the every one or two years rehab of my clutch (master and slave) cylinders on my early 71. On the third rebuild, I switched to Silicone Brake Fluid. Voila, end of problem! It is still working today.

The silicone fluid does not trap any moisture and is a better lubricant for the rubber parts. I also converted the brakes to Silicone fluid with no problems. The silicone fluid is tricky to bleed, so use a pressure bleeder and do it again a couple of days later.

Hope this helps,

Steve
