My new to me FV has Girling masters and I've disassembled the brake system, now it's time to refill and bleed and have no clue what type fluid is suitable. DOT 3, or DOT 4 or can I use my vast supply of ATE blue?
Thanks.
DOT 3 or DOT 4?

Jim,
FWIW, I use Valvoline Synthetic DOT4.

Be sure to purge all non-synthetic from system prior to adding new stuff. Just a precaution.
