what kind of brake fluid do you guys use? i'll be flushing out mine soon since its 130K old.. looking for synthetics of course.. anyone use anything else besides Valvoline SynPower High Performance Synthetic Brake Fluid?

Plain ol' DOT-3 here... DOT-4 is unnecessary (higher boiling point) and DOT-5 sybthetic will eat through the seals of a conventional system designed for DOT-3.

If you want something exotic, go right ahead... but plain ol' DOT-3 works fine in mine.

Keeping it clean is far more important than which type, unless you do race. Buy what you can afford to, I do like the Valvoline Synpower, the semi...

ford motorcraft is the best for stock vehicles and is better than what is in most vehicles today. It has a high boiling point......its a cheap mod for people that are budget racers like i was in highschool. Ran it in my RX-7 and never had a problem.
