1998 OLDSMOBILE INTRIGUE brake fluid

What to Add
When you do need brake fluid, use
only DOT-3 brake
fluid -- such as Delco Supreme ll@ (GM Part
No. 12377967). Use new brake fluid from a sealed
container only.
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.
With the wrong kind
of fluid in your brake
system, your brakes may
not work well, or they
may not even work at all. This could cause
a
crash. Always use the proper brake fluid.
-- 1
NOTICE:
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.
0 If you spill brake fluid on your vehicle’s
painted surfaces, the paint finish can be
damaged. Be careful not
to spill brake fluid
on your vehicle. If you do, wash it off
immediately. See “Appearance Care” in
the Index.
