If MIL-5606 Hydraulic is exceedingly expensive or difficult to get in Europe, DOT-5 Silicone based Brake Fluid is an acceptable replacement fluid. Just don't ever mix the two, and if you change from one to the other, the system has to be flushed clean. -Jeff Scott Los Alamos, NM > Stef wrote

Adam; I used pink Owens-Corning 'Foamular' extruded polystyrene board (but Dow Styrofoam is the same thing). I have used 2-part "five minute" epoxy to bond the board when I want a really good bond. Spread it with a squeegee but don't get it anywhere near an edge or anyplace that you'll be sand

Hi Adam I used 5 minute polyurethane glue with blue Styrofoam on mine. The advantage is it sets quickly so you can get on with things. The downside is that it foams up as it sets so you need to ensure the spars are well restrained so it does not distort. Hung the Jab 3300 engine on a temporary mo

Are you asking about the 1/8 th NPT fittings? If so, I would, and did, use teflon tape. I have Matco and I do NOT use DOT. On Tuesday, November 11, 2014 11:13 AM, stefkr2--- via KRnet wrote: = Hi guys, To install the brakes we need to use the straight Or 90 degre fittings to the

Adam, I'm not sure about what "commonly" means in this case. I used just West epoxy with micro balloons. I had tried hot glue, but that did not bond as well as the micro and I kept burning my fingers. I know there are other options as well. Rob Schmitt N1852Z -Original Message- Fr
