Iam not even gonna get hightech on ya here. Real simple, just buy a turkey baster and suck it out that way, and only use it for that use only. Never just let all that dark and sedement filled brake fluid in the resivor run thru the system. Attemting to do so you run the risk of clogging the valve system up in the ABS unit. Thats why alot of people cant get the brake light to go off after a thorough brake job. First suck the dark fluid out of the resivor then fill it with clean brake fluid. Now you can bleed the brakes to your desire. Also dont quickly pum at the pedal, do it slow and gradualy. Pumping real fastlike will permiate more air bubbles in the master cylinder if there is any present. I hope this helps. Good luck.
RPM drops and kills engine when brake. HELP!?
I have never changed the fluid that way, I just bleed the brakes and add new fluid as it sucks it down. Bleed it enough, and you will replace all the fluid in the lines.What's the best oil to use for High-Mileage automobiles?
Yes! Go to an AutoZone. They have a hand pump that you can use to suck the fluid out of the resevoir. You can also use it to bleed your brake lines from each wheel.More Questions & Answers ...
