blockquote, div.yahoo_quoted { margin-left: 0 !important; border-left:1px 
#715FFA solid !important; padding-left:1ex !important; background-color:white 
!important; } Definitely sounds like my issue.  Thanks!!

Hydraulic brake fluid 5606 will congeal to a thick gooey mess when left 
exposed to open air for some time.  Don't know if something evaporates or 
oxidizes or both.  The military does not use 5606 anymore because of that 
characteristic.  If you are looking for a substitute for 5606, be very 
careful regarding seal compatibility, flexible hose compatibility and water 
absorption.  Boiling point is usually not an issue in KR applications, but 
with heavy and repeated brake applications, could be.  Steam generated from 
the absorbed water in hydraulic brake fluid can produce a gas bubble in the 
brake lines and slave cylinders to render braking action nil until things 
cool off.

Anybody ever have an issue with the red aviation brake fluid gelling in the 
lines? It gets as thick as gear oil or thicker so much so that the brakes 
are inefficient.Thanks,Kenny N6399U
