What are you guys using for brake fluid with the Matco brakes? I'm ready to finish
up my brake system in my 701 and need to get the right fluid.

Be sure to use regular aircraft brake fluid, NOT automotive stuff. A quart
of aircraft brake fluid, the red stuff, will last for years. You can get it
at any aviation supply house or FBO operation.

>From the MATCO WEB Site:
MATCO mfg's MCMC-5 master cylinder uses a INTERNAL reservoir. The MCMC-5 can be
used in individual or dual brake applications. Buna-n orings are used in this
assembly. Mil-H-5606 aircraft hydraulic fluid or compatible fluids are reccomended.
DOT5 may be used but not DOT5.1 which contains glycol. DOT3 and DOT4 may
not be used and will cause immediate damage to the seals.

I don't know, just parroting along what my A & P friends tell me. They all
say its trouble and not to do it, but I have no idea why, though one or two
told me and I forget the details. So I've just always used the aircraft
spec red stuff that comes in the quart tin cans.
