i have shops all the time buy comp fittings for brake systems....scares the **** out of me.
Good story today...
Im sitting at my desk area, and I overhear "I poured a bottle of power steering fluid into my master cylinder, and now my brakes dont work."
I ran out, cut off the girl that I work with, and tell them to start removing anything and everything with rubber in the brake system. He looked at me as if I was kidding.
I said "no, im being serious. You need to replace everything, and then you will have to flush the system out several times to get that nasty crap out so you dont do damage to the new stuff."
He says "well, I can just replace the master cylinder..." and then I cut him off again and told him no, you cannot just replace the master. You MUST replace everything.
He was driving around for a month like that...two mexicans. Yikes.
Future note, Power steering fluid, Oil, and ATF are almost damn near interchangeable.
Brake Fluid is not.
