Years ago, I was washing my 70's Olds in the Drive and my Dad came out to help dry. He grabbed the rag from the bench where I just rebuilt a wheel cylinder...soaked in brake fluid.
@@AndyKruseChannel dot 5 is the perfect fluid for motorcycles and classic cars because it's silicone based and won't draw in moisture in vehicles that don't get used as much
If there is a hint of a leak in brake systems you never get a good firm pedal. So how did you bleed brakes and drive car around with brakes leaking fluid like that.

Ouch, that one will hurt for years. :)
Get a double flaring tool and a roll of line and make a complete line
You are welcome to come over and do that for me. :)
@AndyKruseChannel unless you're in South West Florida I can't help you but I can send you a hands on video showing you how to double flare brake lines
DOT5 silicone brake fluid is the answer to this. I've had DOT5 in all of my vehicles for 20 years. No issues whatsoever.
Yeah, it's more about not really knowing how corrosive this stuff is, but now I know. :)
@@AndyKruseChannel Yeah, for sure. No criticism on my end.
Love the channel.
Also, your breather hose looks like it’s pinched closed. If the pressure in the rear end, can’t come out is going to push out of one of your seals.

Then how did you bleed your brakes. Something about this is suspect
What?
