When I converted to silicone I used denatured alcohol with no  problems.

FoT,

I'm considering building a tool that will flush oil  lines, brake lines and
fuel lines while left in the car.

This can be  accomplished with a harbor freight parts washer and some 
adapter
fittings,  hoses and filters.

The part I'm hung up on is the solvent used. My  first thought was denatured
alcohol because with compressed air

used  after the flushing any residue would easily evaporate. Two things came
up,  flash point and erosion of rubber lines.

If anybody has any thoughts on  such a tool that won't blow up, eat rubber
lines and won't leave residue  please jump in.



as always,
