I changed from Dot 3 to Dot 5 about a year ago on a pretty fresh brake system. I flushed the Dot 3 out with copious amounts of alcohol, then blew out the alcohol and ran air for a while to dry things out. Dot 5 went into an empty system. It was a very clean system to begin with, and I've seen no ill effects on seals. > > > Also, I don't see how we can get 100% of the DOT3 out, there is bound to be > some residue, will there be a serious compatibility issue with a slight mix > of the different types? ** triumphs@autox.team.net ** Archive: http://www.team.net/archive |
