Synthetic Brake fluid
Was it dot 4 or 5?
The dot 5 is silcon based and should not be used but according the my brake supply place I use you only have to flush the old fluid out with the new fluid and all I did when I did mine without any problems. It helps if they are different colors so you know when it is all out and then a quick pressure bleed ( get someone to pump the pedal 3 times quickly and them hold with pressure ) before opening the bleeder as I found a little more of the old fluid would be flushed out of the caliper. If will take nearly 500 mils to do the right rear first and then it is only a matter of another 500 mils to do the left rear followed by the left front and right front lastly.
Go with that Ron. ;)
