Fluid looks a bit manky though. Id suggest a full system flush. Think you would be surprised at the effect it will have!

and that fluid needs changing, so just flush it all out
Fluid strainer!? Never had one! What do they look like and where could I get one? No, no, I am not trolling :roll: I had flushed 1 litre of fluid through but then I jacked up one side too high to bleed the brakes with the tank too low so air got into the master cylinder and then I didn't have enough fresh fluid left over so had to flush the old stuff back through again
Had to get it done before the MOT you see (09-08-2013, 10:10 PM)samass Wrote: ew, that's manky!
drain out all the old fluid, then flush the system out by pumping some washing up liquid and water through a few times, then put some fresh brake fluid in, that'll sort her out nicely
Alright then, should the washing up liquid be with water or just washing up liquid? Gonna get this done next week hopefully. I also have some white spirit, should I chuck some of that in there? Thanks. Oh yeah, I saw you just mentioned water in your post, haha. Gonna start as soon as possible, thanks for the advice
