TR-3 - Silicone brake fluid potential problem.

[John Cowan <jfcowan@sj.znet.com>]

  The disk brakes on my '60 TR-3A do not release after they are applied
(with the car up on a rack).  Mechanic says that the silicone brake fluid
used by former mechanic has softened O rings in brake mechanism so that
they no longer retract the pads when the brake pedal is released.
   Any thoughts or similar experiences?
Thanks.
