Still Stinking Brake Fluid
Audifans,
Stinky brake fluid smell continues. Two kind listers responded (thanks
Tony and Ingo!!). I checked the clutch stuff inside the car. No fluid.
Ingo suggested cracked brake line somewhere. Haven't looked at the
brake lines yet. However, the burning question is, as it seems to be
BURNING(or hot) fluid (brake fluid I assume, as the brake and clutch
were just flushed, and the smell is towards the rear of the car, no
pentosin back there), where on the car could brake fluid get to
something hot (most likely near/at the exhaust toward the rear of the
car)??? Is there a brake line or clutch stuff that comes near the
exhaust/engine?
Help, these fumes are making me sick (really)...
Please E-Mail me at home, glewis5000@aol.com.
Thanks to All,
