Hydraulic fluid question

[Phil Waterman]

There is a potential leak problem if any of the brake system has sleeves. Silicon brake fluid will leak from a system that will hold regular fluid without leaking. This is according to White Post Restorations who has been doing brake cylinders sleeves for over 25 years. They have had a problems in the past with the silicon fluid leaking down the out side of the sleeves, so they advise against using it.
