What to Add When you do need brake fluid. use only DOT-3 brake fluid -- such as Delco Supreme I 1 (GM Part No. 12377967). Use new brake fluid from a sealed container only. @ 0 Always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap and the area around the cap before removing it. This will help keep dirt from entering the reservoir. 1A CAUTION: 0 With the wrong kind of fluid in your brake system, your brakes may not work well, o r they may not even workat all. This could cause a crash. Always use the proper brake fluid. Using the wrong fluid can badly damage brake system parts. For example, just a few drops of mineral-based oil, such as engine oil, in your brake system can damage brake system parts so badly that they'll have to be replaced. Don't let someone put in the wrong kind of fluid. If you spill brake fluid on your vehicle's painted surfaces, the paint finish can be damaged. Be careful not tospill brake fluid on yourvehicle. If you do, wash it off immediately. See "Appearance Care" in the Index.
