Brake fluid has crap in it?
So I pulled the cap on my brake/clutch fluid resivour and it has some crap floating around in it. It's pretty nasty looking too. Do you guys think it's time to purge the enitre break/clutch system and clean that gunk out? I mean brake fluid is supposed to be nice, clean, and yellowish right?

Go to a parts store of your choice and get a battery water remover, adder. Thing looks like a big turkey baster It wont be harmed by the brake fliud as it can stand up to battery acid. About 5 bucks, you may need some tubing to reach all the way down into the brake resivoir. You DO NOT want to force that stuff into the brake and clutch cyclinders but purging it. But you should remove it. If you're not filmilar with brake fluid, it will remove paint. Make sure you have a fresh bottle to refill what you remove. If youre unsure, get help, dont risk your brakes not working.
