I see there is a DOT5.1 which is PAG and compatible with DOT 4 applications. How confusing is that likely to be? (DOT 5.1 is just a higher temperature version of DOT 4 it seems)

You could always just change the fluid every four years... dot 3 or 4 for the clutch, and dot 4 for the brakes.
I personally like Girling Crimson, from a 30 year old tin I found in the back of the garage Brian |
