FLUID SPECIFICATION
RING
J9106-11
Fig. 3 Clutch Master Cylinder
Use Mopar, Brake And Hydraulic Clutch Fluid or
equivalent. Use only brake fluid conforming to DOT
3, Federal, Department of Transportation specifica­
tion. To avoid fluid contamination, use fluid from a
properly sealed container.
CAUTION: Never use reclaimed brake fluid or fluid
from an unsealed container. In addition, do not use
fluid from a container that has been opened and al­
lowed to stand for an extended length of time.
Moisture in the air can be absorbed by the fluid,
which causes dilution with loss of effectiveness.
