It's been a bit since i've bought it, but i could of sworn the blue bottle was the blue fluid and the amber bottle was amber. Then again they could changed the manufacturing practices.

EDIT: actually the Federal Government got in there and said brake fluid must be Amber, wtf why does it matter if it's blue or amber?

 

Yep, the DOT outlawed it.... stupid...

 

Its for fire safety in the case of an accident - not stupid.

 

i have 2 or 3 bottles of the blue still ... hahahaha suck it government.

i can check my local race shop to see if they have any left over if someone wants it.

 

Just need diff colors so when you bleed the new stuff you can see it :/ can they do two different shades of Amber yellow stuff?

 

they only have the one color now. If your brake fluid is dirty enough you will have 2 shades of amber lol

 

Fire safety? How does the color of brake fluid matter when it's inside a can or a car? Why isn't oil colored green then?

 

when it spills outside the car.

 

maybe to distinguish between other fluids?

 

go read about it on the DOT's site if you have questions as to why they banned it ... why are you asking us, we didnt ban it ?

 

Just amazed that that's the reasoning they used.

Lots of other fluids to worry about before brake fluid I would think.

That makes it sound like it was based on color alone. DOT 5 is purple.

I would think it's more about trying to identify it so they can clean it up appropriately. But power steering fluid is pretty close in color to brake fluid as is oil if you get down to it.

 

you guys see powell's new brake air duct system? easy drill and bolt on!

 

Race gas that you buy for the track is blue in color (aka av gas, 100 octane leaded). If you crashed, it's for the first responders safety to visually distinguish fuel from brake fluid.

 

no post up pics !!!

 

C10 is clear, C14 is yellow

VP MOTORSPORTS 100 is orange VP MOTORSPORTS 101 is yellow, their MOTORSPORTS109 is clear.

This is a retarted reason to reject blue brake fluid since most first responders aren't looking at fluid colors unless its blood red

 

Sunoco 110 is purple.

 

I didn't even take pics :/ bent/cut sheet metal, you fold a flap, drill holes, bolt into CA. Powell showed me...now I just need my control arms w/ those old bushings pushed in and drill some holes. Of course knowing me, it will be in a few years or this winter. Glo may have some pics.

 

Thanks Staged, 110 is what I was referring to.

 

 

i saw the duct system too, didn't take pics tho. its so simple.

 

draw us a picture lmao

 

I have attached my hand drawn image.... you will have no idea how this works as my drawing sucks *****.

 

judging by your sig, I didn't expect better
