Silicon brake fluid.

How many have used it? Does it give a different pedal feel? Since I did all new everything on the Bee, and it will sit all winter, I filled it up with silicon fluid. The pedal feel doesn't make me happy. Is there a different 'feel' to it, or do I need to keep bleeding?
I bench bled the master cylinder, and I have bled each line ttwice starting from the right rear. All connections are tight, no leaks, and no more bubbles! I will most likely hit them again when I go through the mental checklist before I drive it out of the garage. Just looking for your thoughts.
Richard E., you out there?!

Did you put the brake fluid bottle in hot water/out in sun to release all the trapped air before putting in your car? I read to do this and did so before changing my fluid over. Bled things once and my brake pedal felt as firm as ever.

I put it in my new system and can't feel any difference from the old

keep bleeding, no brake fluid is compressable, only the air in it is. You can't feel any difference between Dot 3 and Dot 5

Thanks guys. I'll keep bleeding. I didn't do any warming of anything. Just poured it in.

I have 2 cars with manual brakes with silicon,and they have nice solid pedals.Big advantage is if you get it on the paint,it doesn't affect it. Try the Mighty Vac system,works great.
