So, has anyone replaced SRF with another fluid?

If so, we're there any negative effects?

We had a customer inquire about this yesterday. The Millers we sell is basically the same stuff as the Motul - neither one makes it, it is sourced externally (also also sold as Stop Tech et al). I ran Millers in the 968 when I tracked it, and had put in SRF in my race car, but will be changing it over, as well, based on the fact that the Bryan Herta team has tested the Millers, and will be using it in their IndyCars, as well.

Here is a link to the TDS on SRF from Castrol: http://datasheets.bp.com/bpglis/Fusi...E-8DHDD7_0.pdf

Key phrase in there is: "It is miscible with all conventional fluids meeting US Federal Standards FMVSS 116 DOT 3 and DOT 4, ISO 4925 and current SAE J 1703 and J1704."

Based on that, a simple flush is probably adequate. I have my personal tendencies of completely draining a system, and blowing out the lines, but I don't have ABS, so it may be easier said than done for all of you.
