I'm reposting in the event that others may not have seen the discussion within the previous thread about the clutch, which has taken on a bit of another life. My clutch pedal hit the carpet with no resistance yesterday and there was fluid on the garage floor. I have no complaints after 32 years and I'm happy that it wasn't on a trip or in rush hour traffic.
Today I ordered a brand new "complete" hydraulic system for my TR6 clutch from Moss, including master & slave cylinders, braided stainless flex line, steel pipe and joint fitting and new silicone fluid, mainly to protect my paint under the hood. There will be nothing old left to fail or to contaminate the new fluid.
After doing so and reading various posts with comments to my situation it was brought to my attention that I may have issues with swelling and possible premature failure that may be caused by using the silicone fluid.
Moss tech support was rather non-committal one way or the other about what may or may not happen, so I'm curious to see what other experiences or thoughts are out here supporting either one or the other.
I'm open for suggestions BEFORE I put the fluid in, so fire away.
