Bremsflüssigkeits ersatz?
Hey ich bin hobby tüftler und habe eine alte hydrolikbremse gefunden, wo keine bremsflüssigkeit mehr vorhanden ist, ich habe gelesen das man motoröl nehmen kann als kurzfristigen ersatz, da der unterschied von motor öl und bremsslüssigkeit der ist das bremsflüssigkeit ätzend ist und die rohre frei zu halten, also was ist wenn ich motoröl mit ein bisschen aceton vermenge ist das ein guter ersatz oder macht das aceton meine schläuche kaputt??
It is always nice to read what people always see or give of themselves motor oil is completely different from brake fluid. brake fluid is hygroscopic i.e. it draws moisture (water) and thus it is also water soluble, oil does not last. And when engine oil tilts in, you’ll get the seals open and you’ll be able to demonstrate the parts very hard.
So all seals in a brake built for DOT brake fluid are attacked by engine oil.
In addition, engine oil is water repellent instead of water attracting, which ensures that water drops can form within the brake and under the action of heat the then cooking, gas forms it can be computed your braking effect falls away.
There are a few systems that work with mineral oils zb has made Citroen the earlier, and there are some military vehicles which used silicone-based brake fluid also that is another construction site.
Go tomorrow to a building market or a tank and buy the right brake fluid
but DOT is more corrosive than brake fluid?

Jain… DOT is corrosive because it attracts water. DOT brake fluid damages your skin primarily by absorbing water from your skin.
This is a desired principle so that no water droplets can form in the brake system because it connects to a homogeneous mass in the brake fluid.
In addition, the link you sent is already an answer that I confirm. Normal oil has the problem of cooking the water drop which can find its way pure, which leads to braking failure.
So tilt into your brake system ONLY ABSOLUT EQUIPMENT. The means pure which according to manufacturer belongs pure everything else is very dangerous!
