How do you determine what brake fluid you have ? I didn't fill mine originally. I'm 90% sure that dot5 was used, but how do I know for sure ?
I Imagine the same test would apply to dot3 as far as water mixing...
Info I see says you can mix dot3 & 4 https://blog.amsoil.com/dot-3-and-dot-4-brake-fluid-whats-the-difference/
Using water to determine 4 or 5

I thought DOT5 was mandated to be purple? and DOT3&4 are amber. :dunno:

It is somewhat of a purple pearl color when fresh, but ends up looking like all others..
