--------  There has been a stupid error by the Repair Shop that "Worked" on my '85 Urq and I just found out.   They bled the brakes and replaced the fluid with ATF.   I just found out by checking the Invoice again then looking in the container.    What is the best way to remedy the problem.   Should I just remove the Red fluid from the reservoir and fill it with Pentosin and then bleed the brakes??  What could have been harmed by the ATF in the system , that I should check before I drive the car, when I get it started...I'm still reinstalling the MegaSquirt ECU, etc.   Does pumping the peddle many times apply here , in some way?  They had told me that they bled the brakes and were going to go to the SmogShop for the Test, but that after just a few blocks, the breaks locked up.  That is All the info they gave me.    Thanks In Advance ,     ... Stephen Redford '85Urq with More Problems than I need right now.
