You answer is not true. You can not mix brake fluids

BRAKE FLUID FACTS

Never use DOT 5 fluid in a vehicle that uses DOT 3 or DOT 4
You can use DOT 4 in a car that uses DOT 3, but NOT vice-versa
Never substitute any other fluid for brake fluid
Do not spill brake fluid - it damages painted surfaces and finishes
Wash your hands after coming in contact with brake fluid
DOT 5 doesn’t mix well with glycol fluids in cars with ABS brakes

read,, i said bleed it out,, DOT (Department of Transport) coding and are either DOT 3, DOT 4 or DOT 5.1. In general, the higher the number the higher the typical brake fluid boiling point.Jan 2, 2013,, simple terms HEAT nothing else

hard to make clearer,, bleed out change whatever term you want to use,, then use computer and checkout what the numbers mean in brake fluid,, heat resistance,, boiling point,, again whatever term you want to use,, DOT (Department of Transport) coding and are either DOT 3, DOT 4 or DOT 5.1. In general, the higher the number the higher the typical brake fluid boiling point.Jan 2, 2013
