Hello to all
Im about to change my slave clutch cylinder...andi saw something confusing.....
Everybody say that the clutch fluid to use is DOT4. Ont he cap of the cylinder say DOT3!????
Am I confusing something??!!!
 
Because it’s an old vehicle, dot 4 had not been invented when it was made. Dot 4 just has a higher temperature rating as far as I know.

DOT 3 was the standard when the FL1 was first built, however it was superseded by DOT 4 over a decade ago, so use that instead, as it's completely backwards compatible. ;)
