where the brake fluid went

Post by: **Lotus 50** » Wed May 09, 2018 1:16 am

Last summer I posted wondering where my brake fluid was going. It was disappearing with no apparent leaks. Someone here correctly suggested it was going into the engine.

One rebuilt brake master cylinder (2nd time for me) and a rebuilt vacuum reservoir and my brake pedal feels totally different.

thanks

Well every day is a school day. I would never have considered that!

Thanks for sharing, and I'm glad you fixed it. :-)

Ian.

I imagine by vacuum reservoir you mean "brake servo" :wink:
