Ok to use DOT4 in 91 LS400?
Was reading the label on a bottle of Prestone Synthetic DOT4 brake fluid. It says:
Good for all DOT 3 & 4 brake systems.
Recommended for all ABS, Disc and Drum brake systems....requiring DOT 3 and DOT 4 fluids.
Compatible with all conventional brake fluids.
Just wanted to ask if anyone had any opinions on the subject - i.e., is there any reason I shouldn't use the DOT 4 in my 91 LS when I flush my brake system? Thanks.

I do it - I have ATE Type 200 fluid in my car now, I'm switching it out to ATE Super Blue soon. DOT 4 has higher wet/dry boiling point since it also has borate esters in it - making it a touch less hygroscopic.

Yup..I used it in my prelude and integra before..purple color was my dot4...
worked good...make sure you do a good evacuation of all the old dot3, before putting in the good stuff..
how much more did yours cost?
