3. Re: Brake Fluid (score: 1): Author: johnm@ims.com (John Miller); Date: Mon, 20 Apr 1998 11:16:03 -0700; On the karting list they said to take some out and mix it with water. Dot 3 should fully disolve, silicon won't. Haven't done this myself, but can experiment tonight, if I remember. John Miller; /html/shop-talk/1998-04/msg00091.html (7,223 bytes)

Ny" <n.ny@intest.com>; Date: Mon, 20 Apr 1998 16:29:17 -0400; Also check by looking at the color (all DOT 3 fluid is relatively clear and Silicone fluid is usually a bright color like blue or yellow) Regards, Nils; /html/shop-talk/1998-04/msg00095.html (7,283 bytes)
