Subject: YELLOW DOT 5 BRAKE FLUID IP: Logged
Message: Hello ALL
I did a silicone (DOT 5) brake fluid conversion on my truck several years ago, It was ok for awhile then I started to have problems. Basically the brake fluid is going in the master purple and coming out the bleeders yellow. The trucks been sitting for awhile and when I took it out the passenger rear wheel would lock up, all the other are fine. I changed the wheel cylinders on the back of the truck today. I took the old cylnders off and took them apart and it looks as if the fluid started to solidify.
I have talked to several people about this, that run DOT 5, and they said they never had a problem with it.
I flushed the system and changed almost all of the parts in the system but I still have yellow brake fluid.
Any suggetions, comment or places I should look for why it's doing this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
