Synthetic Brake Fluid, Is it ok to use?
I have always used non synthetic DOT 3 brake fluid in my '73 Beetle.
The only name brand brake fluid I saw at the store was synthetic. Is it ok to use? Thanks!

Well I went to Auto Zone today and saw this.
Valvoline Syn Power Full Synthetic
SynPower High Performance Synthetic Brake Fluid is recommended for ABS, hydraulic drum and disc braking systems and hydraulic clutches requiring DOT 3 and DOT 4 fluids. Its premium, synthetic, low-moisture formulation provides superior anti-vapor lock protection. It has a high dry-boiling point up to 500=B0F that reduces the risk of fluid vaporization and possible brake failure.
*Exceeds DOT 3 and DOT 4 specifications *For most ABS, disc or drum brake systems *High boiling point reduces risk of brake failure *Compatible with conventional brake fluids !!!
Living and working in Southeast Florida, the brakes on our van are in constant use. Just recently I had to replace the lines, calipers, master, and rear brake cyl. Being a user of Valvoline for some 40 years, I refilled the brake lines with the SynPower brake fluid. We have noticed a major improvement with stop and go driving, and also noticed no more middle pedal sponge.
Apparently I misunderstood your message. I always thought brake fluid was either glycol based (the kind that absorbs water) or silicone based (which has been on the market for about 30 years). I've never heard of synthetic brake fluid. Do you know what the ingredients are?
