I was wondering what kind of fluid does the clutch reservior take in my 1500 midget (DOT 3 Brake Fluid)?

I took the cap off and the level seems low..Do I fill it to the top?
 
if its regular clutch/brake fluid, I use Castrol LMA. Just make sure that someone didn't replace it with synthetic in the past. Syn is purple or blue in color.
 
Ok, it doesnt look like its synthetic in there..So, do I go with DOT 3 or 4 for the brakes and clutch??
 
yes, same in both.
 
Either DOT3 or 4. They are compatible if you mix them (just don't mix with DOT5 silicon).
