brake question

[Gunny]

If you can get past the brand name, take a close look at Ford's PM-1-C High Performance Dot 3 brake fluid. That's all I used in my 90 ZR-1 and 94 LT1 (with upgraded ZR-1 brakes). I installed Russell speed bleeders and changed brake fluid prior to a track event/mountain run or annually, whichever came first. With the speed bleeders I could bleed all 4 in less than 15 minutes & didn't have to bother the wife to pump the brakes -- trust me, it was easier to install the speed bleeders than explain to my lovely bride the importance of bleeding the brakes so frequently.

Prestone Dot 4 exceeds the specs on that and is cheaper.

Gunny, how do you know when all the air is pumped out? Dumb question from when I did it as a two man job...[emoji16]
