Subject:Brake Fluid Dot 3 & 4?

Was having a mechanic take a look at my brake master cylinder/clutch master
cylinder area for a leak I'm having (couldn't find it myself). He found a
slow leak in the clutch master, topped of the system with Dot 3 and bleed out
the lines to keep me going until the new part shows up. My question is with
the brake/clutch fluid. I think the system may have had Dot 4 in the lines
and although the books say Dot 3 or 4 would be ok, it doesn't say anything
about mixing them. Would adding Dot 3 on top of what may be Dot4 be a
problem? Thanks in advance.
