Just to be clear 5.1 is not a silicone fluid like dot 5 is; dot 5.1 is "traditional" with a higher boiling point.

5.1 will suck moisture, and will damage paint!




Do'oh! I should have known that "point 1" was there for a reason.

So none of the reasons I listed are valid. Not sure why you would use DOT 5.1 in anything other than a race car.




Don't feel alone! Thankfully I learned something today and not the hard way...
