I have a new master and slave cylinder showing up today... what is going to be the best fluid for this new hardware?

 

[MA70Supra88]

I use DOT3 brake fluid

 

[a_zepeda9236]

yup, thats what i used.. just to let you know it takes a while to fully bleed out all the air after you replace those

 

[Joker Fuel]

i need to bleed mine and its raining today :cries:

 

[brewster]

i cant seem to get all the air out of mine. im going to buy a pressure bleeder sometime this week.

 

[upgradedsupra]

Ferodo or Motul are the best fluids out there IMO

DOT 3 would be obvious... I would think

Dot3 here.

 

[a_zepeda9236]

i dont think a pressure bleeder is necessary.. it just takes longer than bleeding a brake system

 

[nose-gobblin]

ugh dot 3 is "clutch fluid" if you pay more for "clutch fluid" u got ripped off use dot 3 just like hthe cap says.

i heard motul was pretty good

 

[Orion ZyGarian]

Willing to bet money theres going to be no difference between regular DOT3 and any other fluid, regardless of price. Clutch fluid doesnt get even close to what the brake fluid goes through, by a longshot.

I filled it up with DOT3! It feels just like before, but now the fluid isn't gooey, empty, and leaking out...

I honestly have no idea how it was working before!

That's definitely a job... Took me like 30 minutes to do, and you wouldn't think the underside of the dash would be so GREASY!

:lol:

Don't forget about adjusting the length of the rod to the master... at least mine was adjustable.

Took me a little longer, I am going to run 0 gauge in a few weeks so I got a special grommet and put it in... had to make a huge frickin hole.


I adjusted mine to the same as it was before... i think i may wanna change it though, we'll see *shrug*

 

[Orion ZyGarian]

You guys are weird when I replaced my slave cylinder on my AE86 I bled it by pumping it a few times

 

[MK3Brent]

Well what was weird with mine... was I adjusted the pedal height via the extending rod to the master... then a few weeks later I needed to be extended a little more.

Just a PITA.

DOT3, bleeding is a bitch!

 

[MK3Brent]

It's a two man job.
