Thank you.

I’m considering the dot5 since I have a limited use, cruise only car, with manual drums and nice paint. Seems I need to be very careful on the extra bleeding time and given my time this spring I’ll probably go with dot3 and just be extra careful. Won’t need to take out much as the fluid in the master is very clean and my usual spring routine is just to see some clean come out the clear hose. The change is obvious and doing every spring has served me well on many cars.

I used to run dot4, but I’ve read that one is more sensitive on absorbing moisture than dot3. Maybe a bunch of rags and a steady hand and hope for the best. What I saw makes me think either would be fine with my routine bleeding s keeping the water drained off anyway. Car will never be pushed that hard to test boiling point.

It’s a bummer somebody dint just put the dot5 in when they redid the brakes. It has new lines and hoses and even got a new master. Would’ve been so easy to add the purple and be done at that time.
