I know my '87 4kq  doesn't have the fully-powered brakes a la 5k, but 
on the reservoir it says mineral hydraulic oil (G00200). My mechanic 
has also suggested that whether green goo was necessary in the first 
place or not, switching to ATF at this point could cause leaks. What's 
the list's wisdom? Thanks.
