Having just said I was thankful that we weren't reviving the DOT 3/4/5 brake fluid arguement, I found a really informative article on brake fluid, containing actual facts! Written by the race prep guru Carroll Smith, I'm inclined to think he may know something about this. Check out:

Odd that he doesn't mention using dish detergent in his little article.

Walter,
I tried washing dishes in brake fluid once and it didn't work either

jv,

Maybe you and that kid in New Zeland ought to put your heads together and see if you can get the uses of the liquids straight.

Walter,
I was going to say I'm not that dumb but I have to believe his brake system is cleaner than my dishes!

If dish liquid is good for the brakes, can it clean out my rad system as well?

Great article.. amswered a few unasked questions ( which probably should have been ) for me..

Thanks..
