I've never seen it clear up after awhile, but I suppose it's possible. I really like the silicone brake fluid just because it is not nearly as prone to developing this rust ridge as the standard fluid is. I would just remove and clean the old seals and hone the cylinder, all done with the cylinders still in the car. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
