Tom,


Thanks for all your input! First step is to have a talk with the parts
store's owner.  I specifically asked for brake fluid for my 93 Audi S4,
and this is what they gave me. Don't know where that will go, but I
have to start there.

After that fails I'll order the parts and start working...


Thanks
Chris

PS wanna help?
