Let's play "Guess that fluid" !!!

Looks like the junk that came out of my dirtbike when the gasket between the waterpump and oil system leaked. Just not as thick.

I'll say oil/coolant though... ?

Re: Let's play "Guess that fluid" !!! (VetteNoob)

is it Ozarka natural spring water? :jester
or the water that accumulates in the wells where the hood pins go into when closing the hood? Gotta change that every 5K miles.

Re:

Yep....brake fluid!!! :yesnod: Went thru 32 OZ of DOT3 to flush all that crap out. The fluid in the reservoir was dark and cloudy. I couldnt see the bottom of the reservoir when it was only 1/2 filled. :crazy:

Re: Re: (VetteNoob)

Damn that blinker fluid. Shoulda gone with the KaleCo Synthetic when you had the chance...

However, that brake fluid looks more like coffee than break fluid. :U
