I've been using this as well for years. Never lost a pedal on the track with it if it was less than 6 mos old. Once it is more than a year old it is useless. The good news is that it is cheap. This will NOT hurt your brake system.

Re: Brake Fluid

I've got speedbleeders on the calipers now that I've just done the brakes, so it'll be easy to do the brake fluid at least once a year, more often if it needs it.

Re: Brake Fluid

Thanks for all of the replies. Sounds like I will be going with the Valvoline
Syn. I think that the book says 1 quart will do for bleeding but I'll pick up a couple to be sure. Thanks again:handshak:

Re: Brake Fluid

I have never needed more than one quart to get clean fluid coming from all four calipers.

1 quart will be plenty, don't stock up on it, use fresh every time.
