DOT 5 which REALLY SUCKS WATER OUT OF THE AIR). Are you sure about this? Sounds like you are, but DOT 5 brake fluid is silicone based, isn't it? Hydrophobic, as I read it. Silicone brake fluid is a favorite with some antique car owners, since it doesn't absorb water, which rusts the interior of the brake system. I've got it in my old cars. It has other problems, like being harder to bleed, though. Or I could be completely wrong again. Jim Beckman
