Green Brake Fluid
OK...I'm not crazy. I bought a 1976 Corvette and the brake fluid is green.
It is the color of antifreeze. I have looked around and find a fluid called LHM that is green and is not compatible with DOT fluid. I bought the car in a rural area and I don't think they would have had any exotic brake fluid. Any ideas or suggestions? Is there a hydraulic fluid that is bright green? I've emailed the guy I bought the car from but don't know if I will hear back. Robert |
