I'm recommissioning my Herald at the moment. After a certain amount of
swithering, I decided to go for silicone fluid in the brake and
clutch. The clutch, which I did first, was fine. However, the brakes
have been a real pain. After a first session, with almost a litre of
fluid through the system the pedal was still very springy. A second
session a week later improved things a bit. A third session today
shows no bubbles at all emerging, but there is still a fair bit of
spring in the pedal.

However ... I also have new shows and pads, which always adds a bit of
bounce on the Herald till things bed in

And ... I have read claims that silicone fluid is a bit more
compressible than glycol

So ... should I be worried? Have folk here had problems bleeding
silicone fluid? Experience of it giving more spring to the pedal?
Shall I just take the car out for a drive - the MOT station is 20
miles away over twisting moorland roads - and hope that everything
firms up a bit.

Incidentally, I know that I could switch to glycol, but my reasons for
silicone are fairly good, and I'd like to stick with it unless it
simply isn't going to be possible to get satisfactory performance.

It just cut out and stopped and I'm making the assumption its in the
little box.

I have no spark and when the "black" box was opened it smelt like
something has been getting hot. They have a Bosch electronic box.

What I would like to know is how repairable are these things and can you
buy parts or would anyone have a circuit diagram.


thanks

I own and run a fairly new website on the subject of classic cars, I am
looking for people who would like to share their stories of classic car
ownership, any tips and tricks they picked up over the years and even people
who have a show or event that they wish to promote.

If anyone has a restoration (finished or ongoing) that they would like to
share, or wisdom they wish to dispense then please contact me.

I'm mainly a Triumph and MG guy myself so perhaps you can help me add a bit
of variety to the site!
