"Depending" on who you buy your fluid from this "could" be true.....OR "NOT". I bought mine from Straight Eight (parts suppliers for Duesenberg. Packards etc etc, TRUE Classics) it was expensive ($35ish a vial) BUT everything I read of their fluid were testimonies of 10+ years and still "red". I know David Renner at Renner's corner also sells it, I have NO experience with his so a call to him might be worth the effort.
