I had not heard about the synthetic fluid causing brake light switch problems, but….
I have been running synthetic fluid for two years with no apparent problems. Unfortunately, my new brake light switch only lasted 18 months. What does the synthetic fluid actually do to the switch and is there anything that can be done other than switching back Castrol or fabricating a pedal actuated switch?
Also, I believe the trick to bypassing the booster is to go to a smaller diameter, not larger. I bought the CAT underbore master and ended up having to fabricate a new pushrod for it but it works quite well.
