>Randall seemed to provide a lot of good reasons for using DOT 5 in my TR4
seems pretty strong.  Any reason why someone else would recommend DOT 3/4
instead?  (My dad replaced the master cylinder and brake fluid before
parking it in 86, and whatever he put in there seemed like pretty good
stuff, no trace of corrosion or contamination in the fluid.) - Riff

OK Riff.

1) You already have DOT4 and don't want to rebuild or flush

2) You are concerned about availability out of town (on the road). 
Although DOT 5 is more prevelent than it was 5 years ago)

3) You are concerned about what a tune-up shop may put in.  (See #2 above)

4) um um  Well, that's about it.
