Brake fluid flush & new guy meet - Saturday - 3/12/2005

**sammm** · 03-10-2005, 03:03 PM

Anyone else need to flush brake fluid? Anyone want to meet the new guy (jolberry) and check out his '99 Sport?

This coming Saturday at 3pm'ish - POS World HQ - Euless. Vote accordingly. (If there's not enough interest, it will be cancelled.)

I voted WTF. Sorry, couldn't resist.
IF my car is running, and IF there is someone that could help me with a CLUTCH Fluid flush, I MIGHT stop by. Tailchaser was ragging on me for the maple syrup look of my clutch fluid the other day. Oooo... and I need a fuel filter.... gotta put in a new fuel filter. And maybe a new thermostat. Yeah.. That's the ticket!

I've got a Mity-Vac. I could probably use a clutch-flush myself!

OOPS, I ment to say could not make it. I thought it was for the week after next. Wife would have a fit if I did go this weekend.

I'll be in Waxahachie that morning doing construction on my senior design project. If I can break away form the fun and excitement (

) early enough, I'll stop by on my way home.

What would I need to bring? (Fluid, jack, jack stands, tools?)

Man, I really need to do something about my jack situation at some point. I have two TCB jacks -- one that will fit under the car but doesn't lift all the way, and one that won't but will. I end up using the first one to lift it a little, then the second one to finish the job. Doh!

Man, I don't think I've ever touched my clutch fluid. Is it the same stuff?

Your jack problem is nothing that a couple pieces of wood wouln't cure. Drive onto the wood to allow more clearance for the jack that works. :P

OzCop has a good suggestion about the jack situation.

About the clutch - yep, it uses the same fluid as the brakes.

Will there be any gorillas there? When we installed the turbo, etc. we had a hard time getting the return oil line hose over all of the barbs. So, it's leaking and I'm a maybe if I could resolve this.

I'm not sure if I need a clutch fluid flush or not but I am interested in seeing it done and always ready to meet a new Miats owner as well as some of the rest of this bunch so count me in. Oh bye the way..Can I have directions to the POS world HQ?

**ccage** · 03-11-2005, 12:42 AM

What time would this be if it's going to happen?

PM POS for directions to the POS World HQ.

BTW, putting your entire post in bold-faced italics is kinda annoying.

**channelmaniac** · 03-11-2005, 08:36 AM

I'll try to be there but no promises...

We had to spend the night last night in a hotel - getting tile put in a large portion of the house... and combined with a couple of late night events for work, I may have to spend Saturday doing "honey dos"

Send me a PM if you need directions to my place in Euless. I'm just about a mile south of Pennington Field (183 & Central Dr.). This will also be the last of the Tech Days at this Facility we will be in our new World Headquarters on April 4.

Please keep in mind I do not have my deposit back yet on this place!

**jolberry** · 03-11-2005, 10:28 AM

3 pm I be there with my new toy and some Valvoline Syn brake fluid. Do I need to bring any tools?

To all who are participating - Bring your jack-stands, fluid(s) and be prepared to take your old fluids home with you. Paper towels are always a good thing to have on hand. There will be a floor jack on-site and I will bring my Mity-Vac.

**Darron65** · 03-11-2005, 12:36 PM

I really must check in here more often. I need to look after a few things on the car (flush the hyd clutch, change the diff oil, replace fogs) but my yard needs more attention than the car right now.

I hope to see you guys at the next tech day, hopefully at POS's new World Headquarters!

**onething** · 03-11-2005, 01:47 PM

Due to the current mental state of mrsthing and our new home . . . she insists that you can manage without my wisdom and expertise.

Please refrain from using the

in you comments.
