Re: [Fot] Brake Fluid

I used to do the exact same procedure using Castrol LMA but the Lemons TR6
experience taught me that you can boil it after a few hours in the Texas
summer heat. The better fluids absorb less moisture and handle the heat
better. At $20 a pint instead of $7 the ATE is good insurance and I get to
skip a few blessings here and there.
