First time bleeding my Clark S2 brakes,
Officially uses DOT3/4
But would it have any problems using DOT4?

I've never heard of DOT3/4.
I think "DOT3/4" means DOT3 [i]or[/i] DOT4.
So, yes, you can use DOT4

Yes - they're very similar and directly compatible.

Did think this but I did find a couple of bottles of 3/4 via google,

However on further search they actually say 3&4,

Note to myself.....look harder before asking stoopid questions! ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Cheers for the help! ๐Ÿ˜€

Yes you can the only difference is their 'wet' boiling point ie how well they work under high temperatures.
