Re: Silicone brake fluid identification (limited lbc content)

[Howard Baugues <bauguesh@abcs.com>]

If you add a drop of the brake fluid to a small glass of water, see
if it mixes or not.  If it mixes, it's DOT 3 or 4, if it doesn't mix
then
it's most likely DOT 5 (silicone).

P.S. Don't drink the water after adding the fluid.  :-)
