Dot 3
I finally got master cylinder installed and used the Russell speed bleeders. Not as tough as I thought. After doing all that I realized I was out of DOT 3 juice so went down and bought a can to top off the MC. It only took a small amount. Brakes are great now . So...looking at the fluid can and it says DOT 3 synthetic ! I called the auto store and they said it blends with the old DOT 3.
Is this true or do I have another problem ? Thx.....Mike |

Re: Dot 3
They are correct, the only one that would not be compatible would be DOT 5, silicone fluid. Everything's fine Mike, no problems.

Re: Dot 3
It's marketing BS, not like there is "natural" brake fluid.
