<div><br></div>
<div>I've not posted in a long time. When I was getting down to the finish line of my frame-off TR6 restoration, in 1995, I decided to go silicon fluid in both brake and clutch systems. I still have that '71 TR6 that I've owned since 1982. At the time silicon fluid was still an issue of more than a little debate.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>No problems in either system to this day.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I thought this subject had been settled long since. It has certainly been settled for me long since.</div>
