Condor Posted August 8, 2015 #2 Posted August 8, 2015 Great video. One thing I didn't think about was the water absorption tendency of higher dot's vs. dot 3. And also the importance of keeping caliper temps low on Ventures, and the fluid needing changing more frequently with 4 or 5.1. This also holds true with our clutch since the slave sits right on the block. One thing I wished he'd covered is the importance of keeping the expansion hole in the reserve clean, and the possible results due to expansion of the fluid under heat on both the brake system and the clutch. The holes show in the schematic, but no discussion about their function.... Otherwise well done....
