Re: Brake Fluid

["Christian Els" <tiAn@usiw.net>]

Best brake fluid is pretty subjective.

Common answers are Ate Super Blue/Gold, Castrol GTLMA, or Motul 600.

I have had good results with Ford Heavy Duty brake fluid, but since I lost
my cheap source I have gone back to Ate.

For a street car that gets maintained regularly I really can't come up with
a good argument against a fresh bottle of what's on sale at the FLAPS.

Anyway you go, bleed it well and flush it at least annually and your brakes
won't let you down.

Cheers,
