Don’t flush your brake system. SUCK IT!
While this approach is not a brake fluid flush, you can still remove most of the nasty and dirty brake fluid directly from the master cylinder, without affecting braking performance.
Dirty brake fluid eventually creates a lot of expensive and time-consuming issues, so removing some of it will greatly increase the longevity and proper function of the brake system.
While ideally a complete flush of the brake system is preferred, sometimes all you can do is a quick job that will allow clean brake fluid to keep things working properly, cleanly, and rust-free, and I show you this approach in this video.
Thank you for watching! 🙂👍🏻
