Brake fluid is dirty
Can someone please help me find some steps on how to change brake fluid? I recall a thread from a member name RANGER. I've used his techniques in the past to change out my clutch fluid which was very helpful. Just wasn't sure if the steps were the same for clutch vs. brake. Thanks guys!

Just did this. Speed Bleeders will cost you $30.00 for all 4 calipers. www.speedbleeder.com . Go to your Ford dealer and pick up 3 cans of Motorcraft high performance DOT 3 brake fluid (supposedly the best) . I removed as much old fluid from the master cylinder, and replaced with new fluid. Remember to put the lid back on the resevoir,and to keep it full while bleeding. Start with the right rear caliper, remove the stock bleeder and install the new speed bleeder. Run a piece of tubing into a container as not to spill brake fluid. Open the speedbleeder 1/2 turn from closed, and pump the brake pedal slowly. Dont put the pedal to the floor or you may damage the master cylinder. Continue to put new fluid in the resevoir until you get fresh fluid coming out of the bleeder, then close the bleeder. Go to the left rear, right front, and the left front last. I had bought new stainless brake lines from L.A.P.D and installed them at the same time.
