In Reply to: Change Brake Fluid ? posted by Lesformore on June 08, 2009 at 20:09:06:
Would be a good idea but finding someone to do the job is impossible. When you next time if a very old vehical you bleed a cylinder catch that fluid and in a clear container look at it and se how dirty black it is compaired to new fluid, the new will be so you can see thru the fluid and the old fluid will look like dirty old engine oil that has beed drained and thrown away and the brake fluid will get contaminated the same as the engine oil. When you put on a new master cylinder you will get rid of a lot of the old fluid in bleeding the brakes, there will possibly be some old dirty fluid in the lines that will work its way back to the new master cylinder to contaminate the new fluid. In a good master cylinder replacement you will bleed the wheel cylinders long enough that new clear fluid will come out of each cylinder. Cheaper than having a cylinder go bad because of the contaminated fluid and people will tell you that bad fluid could not make a cylinder, either wheel or master go bad but when you have no brakes is it cheaper and better to fix things right the first time or do boddy work as well as brake work after the wreck that doing the preventavie maintaince could have prevented.
