<VV> Re: CLEANING BRAKE SYSTEM ramblin

[N2VZD at aol.com]

after what i have seen over the years , i would not feel safe doing just a  
flush on a brake system.  there is more than likely serious crud / and or  
pitting in all of the cylinders. unless you know for sure the condition of the  
inside of the system , including tubing and hoses , it is not safe to take  
shortcuts. the only time they fail is when you need them the most.  brake  tubing 
that looks good can fail from the inside due to pitting .
so jump on that pedal hard , and hold it a minute or so to make sure it  
holds. 
yes i get paranoid over brakes , because of what i have seen , and done in  
the past. just trying to save another corvair and corvair person.
