brake/clutch fluid change

[atcovan]

??? Clutch fluid?? Since when do they use fluid in the clutch? This is new to me..

In the Hydraulically assisted clutch pedal.

Well, really it's hydraulically actuated via pressure applied to the pedal by the driver's foot, ankle, leg, hip, brain, etc.

Dennis, pick up a turkey baster or something similar at a store in the meantime and use it to suck out a lot of the nasty brake/clutch fluid and replace with Valvoline DOT 4.

Why would you use a DOT 4 fluid when it says use only DOT 3?

dot4 will give better braking, it has a higher temp so it is more resistant to brake fade.
