I think draining it first, then refilling would be best to guarantee minimal amounts of DOT4 remain in the braking system.

ATE is dot4., but has a higher wet and dry boiling point over other fluids. if i remember correctly it has 539* dry and 339* wet boiling points.Is the super blue a denser fluid? What is the benefit of this over Dot4?
Maybe so? But if you're going to bleed and vacuum the system like others are saying....does it really matter whether you drain the old fluid first or mix in the new? No.fixed
ok guys, listen up. maby we on .net need to spell things out, or type every damn word so you guys can get it.Maybe so? But if you're going to bleed and vacuum the system like others are saying....does it really matter whether you drain the old fluid first or mix in the new? No.
Thanks teach.ok guys, listen up. maby we on .net need to spell things out, or type every damn word so you guys can get it.
what to do, the proper way:
remove all but a tiny bit of old fluid form the res. dont remove every last drop, as you might get air into the brake system.
the reason is this, if you mix alot of old fluid and new fluid, your not really bringing fresh fluid thru the brake lines. your bringing contaminated fluid (old fluid and new fluid) thru the lines untill 3-4 full refills of new fluid in the res. by removing as much old fluid as you can, your not contaminating the new fluid as much as you would by doing it your above mentioned half ass way--- the wrong way.
So it takes the heat of repeated hard breaking better. What do you mean by wet and dry boiling points?ATE is dot4., but has a higher wet and dry boiling point over other fluids. if i remember correctly it has 539* dry and 339* wet boiling points.
Dry boiling points specify what temperature the fluid will boil at when no measurable amount of water has been absorbed by the brake fluid. Wet boiling points specify the boiling point of the brake fluid once it's absorbed a certain amount of water.So it takes the heat of repeated hard breaking better.

ahhhh cool thanks infoDry boiling points specify what temperature the fluid will boil at when no measurable amount of water has been absorbed by the brake fluid. Wet boiling points specify the boiling point of the brake fluid once it's absorbed a certain amount of water.
