Default Brake Fluid talk ( clutch fluid too)

For those who would be interested in brake fluids, the car cast pod cast went into great detail on this most recent episode.

how they are made, the differences between 3,4,5,5.1 and SAE and DOT ratings

silicon and air bubbles in solution...


really interesting

adam carolla is host and has also done some great episodes on oil with Lake Speed jr.

easily found through carolla's site
