ʻO DOT 3 ka mea maʻamau a ua mau loa ia. Hoʻohana ka nui o nā kaʻa kūloko o ʻAmelika i ka DOT 3 me nā ʻano kaʻa like ʻole i lawe ʻia mai.
Hoʻohana ʻia ʻo DOT 4 e nā mea hana ʻEulopa no ka hapa nui akā ke ʻike nui nei ʻoe iā ia ma nā wahi ʻē aʻe. ʻOi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o ka paila ʻana o DOT 4 ma mua o DOT 3 a loaʻa iā ia kekahi mau mea hoʻohui e kōkua i ka hōʻemi ʻana i nā loli i loko o ke kahe ke omo ʻia ka makū i ka hala ʻana o ka manawa. Aia nā ʻano like ʻole o DOT 4 e ʻike ʻoe iā DOT 4 Plus, DOT 4 Low Viscosity a me DOT 4 heihei. Ma ke ʻano laulā makemake ʻoe e hoʻohana i ke ʻano a ke kaʻa e hōʻike nei.
He silicon ka DOT 5 me kahi kiko paila kiʻekiʻe loa (ʻoi aku ma mua o DOT 3 a me DOT 4. Ua hoʻolālā ʻia ʻaʻole e omo i ka wai, lilo ia i huʻa me nā pehu ea i loko a he paʻakikī pinepine ke kahe i waho, ʻaʻole hoʻi i manaʻo ʻia no ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka ʻōnaehana ABS. ʻAʻole loaʻa ka DOT 5 ma nā kaʻa alanui, ʻoiai hiki ke loaʻa, akā hoʻohana pinepine ʻia i nā kaʻa hōʻikeʻike a me nā kaʻa ʻē aʻe kahi e hopohopo ai i ka hoʻopau ʻana no ka mea ʻaʻole ia e hōʻino i ka pena e like me DOT3 a me DOT4. Eia naʻe, ʻo ke kiko paila kiʻekiʻe loa e ʻoi aku ka pono i nā noi hoʻohana brake kiʻekiʻe.
Ua like ke kemika o DOT 5.1 me DOT3 a me DOT4 me kahi kiko paila a puni ko DOT4.
I kēia manawa ke hoʻohana ʻoe i ka "wai hewa" ʻOiai ʻaʻole i ʻōlelo ʻia e hoʻohui i nā ʻano wai, hiki ke hoʻohui ʻia ʻo DOT3, DOT4 a me DOT5.1. ʻO DOT3 ka mea makepono loa me DOT4 ma kahi o 2x ke kumukūʻai a ʻo DOT5.1 ma mua o 10x ke kumukūʻai. ʻAʻole pono e hoʻohui ʻia ʻo DOT 5 me kekahi o nā wai ʻē aʻe, ʻaʻole like lākou i nā kemika a e hoʻopau ʻoe i nā pilikia.
Inā he kaʻa kāu i hoʻolālā ʻia e hoʻohana iā DOT3 a hoʻokomo iā DOT4 a i ʻole DOT 5.1 i loko, a laila ʻaʻohe hopena maikaʻi ʻole, ʻoiai ʻaʻole i ʻōlelo ʻia e hoʻohuihui iā lākou. Me kahi kaʻa i hoʻolālā ʻia no DOT4 inā ʻaʻohe hopena maikaʻi ʻole āu, akā naʻe me nā ʻano DOT4 like ʻole, hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa kekahi mau pilikia lōʻihi inā waiho ʻoe i ka wai i laila. Inā ʻoe e hoʻohuihui iā DOT5 me kekahi o nā mea ʻē aʻe, e ʻike paha ʻoe i nā pilikia braking, pinepine kahi petal palupalu a me ka paʻakikī ke kahe ʻana o ke koko i nā brakes.
He aha kāu e hana ai? Inā ʻoe e kāwili pono, a laila pono ʻoe e holoi i kāu ʻōnaehana paleki a hoʻokahe i ke koko, e hoʻopiha hou ʻia me ka wai kūpono. Inā ʻike ʻoe i ka hewa a hoʻohui wale i ka mea i loko o ka waihona wai ma mua o kou hoʻokele ʻana i ke kaʻa a i ʻole e hoʻokahe i ke koko o nā paleki i kekahi mamao, hiki paha iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i kahi mea e omo pono ai i nā wai āpau mai ka waihona wai a laila e hoʻololi iā ia me ke ʻano kūpono, ke ʻole ʻoe e hoʻokele ana a i ʻole e kahe ana ke koko a hoʻoluliluli i ka petal ʻaʻohe ala maoli no ka wai e komo ai i loko o nā laina.
Inā ʻoe e hoʻohui iā DOT3, DOT4 a i ʻole DOT5.1 ʻaʻole e pau ka honua inā ʻoe e hoʻokele i kekahi a ʻaʻole paha inā ʻaʻole ʻoe e hana i kekahi mea, hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia lākou. Eia nō naʻe, inā ʻoe e hoʻohui iā DOT5 me kekahi o lākou, e loaʻa iā ʻoe nā pilikia braking a pono e holoi koke i ka ʻōnaehana. ʻAʻole paha e hōʻino i ka ʻōnaehana braking i ka wā pōkole, akā hiki ke hopena i nā pilikia ʻōnaehana braking a me ka hiki ʻole ke kū e like me kou makemake.
