In fact, dot 3 / 4 is hygroscopic, which means it absorbs water.=C2=A0 So a=

Wow, thanks for the heads-up!
=C2=A0
That was the first DOT 4 rated fluid I started using, probably 30 years ago=
, in brakes and clutch hydraulics.
=C2=A0
Have to do some research for a successor. I would still avoid silicone-base=
d fluid for any car that sits a lot. Water will collect and rust the line.
