i work in auto parts and i sell alot of calipers, master cylinders etc, because of people put rubbing alcahol in their, i wouldnt reccomend it, bleed and flush brakes with some dot3 approved brake fluid, and if you care to throw some hi temp dot4 to keep in their then go for it. the whole flushing your brakes with rubbing alcahol, started back in the day with old cars. newer cars, like the escort, should always have approved dot3 or higher brake fluid run through the system. They both get the air and water out equally well. putting rubbing alcahol in your brake system reminds me of the post with the guy running sand through his intake. its pointless and could cause problems in the long run. it may work flawlessly on a 67 mustang but on a 93 scort i personally wouldnt want to drive it after.
im pretty sure this is what chadgore meant, water will come out regardless of what you put through it. i mean hell if your gonna use rubbing alcahol might as well go the extra mile and put some ATF in their or power steering fluid.
