Subject:Synthetic brake fluid Q?
From:Jeffrey R

I'm running DOT 4 brake fluid  in my Vanagon brake system. While looking for
DOT4 at Pep Boys I found none. But I see major brand names of brake fluid now
offer this synthetic brake fluid that "exceeds" DOT3 and DOT4 standards
(thereby being OK for these applications) and says it will mix with both
DOT3 and DOT4 with no problem. (making it different than silcone brake fluid
which cannot be mixed with standard brake fluid, I think.)

Anyone have experience with this stuff at all or in a Vanagon. Comments...

TIA
