Questions & Answers

Do you think this would work for a Nissan Quest 2011?

The domain name is In contrast, DOT 4 has a higher boiling point compared to DOT 3, which is still an easy choice. In many cases, manufacturers recommend DOT 4 now for newer cars, but I believe your nine year old Quest will be fine with

What is the purpose of using this to power the steering?

The automotive industry does not use these. However, it may still be necessary in some stationary hydraulic pumps, but we do not recommend using it

Pit bikes and dirt bikes may be used with this?

DOT3 is a universal code which can be used in any language that requires DOT3. Dot4 is now available on most bikes. If you aren't sure what fluid to use, check your owner's manual or service manual.

In order to change all of the system fluid in my c1500 1998, how much quarters is necessary? What is the place where this is made? How are you?

It's not clear where this product is made, but if you were to buy this gallon and then flush the entire system, I believe that you would only have about half a gallon left. Basically, you should flush your system with two quarts of water.

However, it only works in certain circumstances
4/5

With one gallon of gas, I filled up two vehicles. Like brake fluid, both in smell and appearance. The reason for my 4 star rating is that my cheap brake fluid tester (the kind that basically tests for water in the fluid by using conductance of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4%) only showed 1% for Johnsons DOT3, and 0% for Prestone DOT3-- The tests were conducted on new and newly opened containers both sealed and unsealed. A gallon of Johnson's cleaning fluid and 32 ounces of Prestone cleaning fluid. Formerly, Motorcraft DOT3 was 0% also, a couple of months ago Ideally, I'd like a 0% reading for Johnsons brake fluid, which I've used anyway - I'm not sure how important the cheapie test is, but I would appreciate a 0% reading. The brake fluid readings of one vehicle were 4% (max), and the other 3% before a brake fluid flush The former had also scored high on copper strip test (change fluid now), while the latter nearly had a high score We will retest the vehicles in a little more than a month, once water and copper have been allowed to diffuse into the brake fluid It is expected to be two Water scale is low for 3% and copper scale is quite low for 3%. Since the piston rings in the brake calipers are not compressed into their bores, the brake system cannot be flushed out very efficiently by the most common methods.

There are 3% of water in the universe
3/5

There was 3% water in the fluid, and I also tried using another tester and it showed humidity of 3%. At new, I've tried other brands of brake fluid and got Even if I had been doing this on my own vehicle, I wouldn't have felt comfortable doing it to anyone else's. As far as buying this brand of brake fluid is concerned, I am unlikely to go back to it unless I got a bad batch.

This is a good quality product
5/5

I bought this product as part of a system replacement to replace the brake fluid and calipers in my Titan hydraulic over electric braking. There was no need to go over a gallon. The package came leaking for other people, judging from the reviews I read. The item arrived here safely without any issues, even in Hawaii. I am very pleased with the.

This brand offers the same high quality at a better price than other brand names advertised
5/5

Those high dollar companies do not need to advertise that product because this one is on par with any high end brand. With more than 85 years of experience in the aftermarket car care business, the Johnsen's brand is one of the oldest and most reputable. As part of my research concerning the packaging of brake fluid, I found the following As part of the Tony Stewart and John Force racing teams since 2002, Johnsen's has been very proud of being a part of the teams. In the course of our partnership, both professionals have won numerous championships in their respective fields. These teams seem very comfortable about their product running at the speeds they do, and I feel very comfortable using it on a daily basis!.

The brakes that are replaced multiple times are a good value
5/5

I ordered supplies online because I had two brake jobs to do, and since we are sheltered for this Coronavirus, I needed to flush the lines on both cars. This jug is good value and comes in a large size. However, it would probably be too much to fit in just one car.

Brake fluids are formulated with this It is clear, shows no difficulties mixing with the brake fluid already in my car, and stops the car when pressed when I press the pedal
5/5

I do not know how much, if any, better or worse this brake fluid is than other brands. I consider that to be a win.

I bought it to bleed the brake system after replacing the master cylinder, brake lines, and calipers
5/5

I don't know how much fluid I will use although I have extra but the price was right since it was the cheapest gallon I found.

I thought the value was great, and it showed no signs of leaks upon Since you can leak fluids on Amazon, I have always been hesitant to purchase from Amazon
5/5

I would recommend it if you are looking for a good value and fast shipping. This gallon of water was used to thoroughly clean a brake system that had not been maintained in at least ten years.
