Turbo, Be cautious with silicone brake fluid. It may not play well with your brakes. You may experience a soft pedal. You may experience fluid squirting past the seals if the seals are not 100% compatible with the silicone. Lots of reasons not to use it in my opinion. It's OK on a new vehicle designed for its use. |

lol, i was expecting a horror show --- but that's pretty clever. looks messy, spraying a mist, but it's pretty ingenious. i use a MightyVac and the bottle with dip tube to keep brake fluid out of the MightyVac, but his solution is actually simpler. certainly good in a pinch! |

I really like being able to DL the user manual on HF items! That auto refill bottle wouldn't work on an old MC, the adapters are for round filler holes. Wouldn't be hard to rig something up though. You just turn the bottle upside down in the MC. As fluid level goes down it lets more go in. Convenient on/off valve makes it easy to flip the bottle though.
