Brake Fluid

[Patrick McMullen <mcmullen@isnet.is.bgsm.edu>]

I think the biggest disadvantage to DOT 5 is its compressability at
higher temperatures.  This is why most people in the racing world do not
use DOT 5.  There are several warnings about using DOT 5 in newer cars
with ABS as well.  I use it in my TR6 with no problem for a street car. 
It is better for my car since it only sees about 2000 miles a year.
