ATE Super Blue Recall - Because it's Blue


GTEASER

Recommended Posts

Apparently ATE Super Blue is being recalled by the manufacturer because it is BLUE, therefore making it not compliant with FMVSS 116 that requires brake fluid to be clear to amber in color. Us Americans and our paternal governmental system don't want anyone to accidentally put the Super Blue in the radiator, ya know, cuz blue=water.

On the bright side, ATE will now remove the blue dye from the their excellent brake fluid and rename it "Super Not Blue" with fine print on the package reading "....cuz stoopid mericans".

Black Market Blue available. Knock 3 times on the shop's garage door and we'll slip you some on the downlow.

 

I'm talking to a supplier in NC who has like 500 bottles, going to see if we can do a midnight run down I95 to smuggle some up with some moonshine...

 

We may try to put it in washer fluid bottles since it looks like washer fluid and this is why they banned it to begin with!
