First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... Sure.
You would have to do a lot of bleeding... Gravity bleed the system... Open the bleeders over night with the master cylinder cap off and let it drain. Then put in the fresh stuff and do it again...and may be again If you choose to use silicone...bring your visa card !!! Most older cars will have the dot 3. it has a distinct smell. It smells like brake fluid... ! HA!!! Sorry,,,, Seriously.... the reason I chose silicone is the easy clean up and it will not harm paint, unlike the regular stuff.. Dot 5 (silicone)has a purple color to it Dot 3 is yellowish. I would doubt that your car has silicone...most people won't spend the extra cash and not all parts stores carry it for just that reason.. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of D Dutch Sent: Friday, September 04, 2009 9:49 PM To: First Generation Firebird-L Subject: Re: [FGF] RE: Brake Fluid First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ........................................................................ . What would you suggest if you have a vehicle that your not sure what the previous owner had been putting in it? Could you drain a system and then start with something else?
