The performance of hydraulic petroleum fluids is compared to that of conventional synthetic fluids used in motor vehicle braking systems. Water tolerance tests were made with a laboratory apparatus to study the vapor lock properties. Different parameters which can affect 'vapor lock' have been studied, such as: influence of dissolved water, influence of free water, influence of free water, influence of the quality of seals used in the braking systems.
