    Your attention to detail is an art form all on its own sir. You have a Bob Ross sort of peace in your work and it is awesome! Keep up the content!

    Good video ! I also do this with a Mightyvac. Then you can also bleed front and rear brakes until the fluid comes out clean, then you have essentially flushed all the old fluid out .

    Did this last year on my ‘73. Same process and it worked well. Thanks and another good video.

    I just changed m/c fluid. You can removed all of the fluid and clean the bottom with brake cleaner. As long as you don’t pump the brakes no air will enter system . Thanks for the video!

    Mitch is correct. Brake fluid is hydroscopic. It attracts moisture. I open the GTO master cylinder and close it back up fairly quickly. Same with the fluid bottle. So much humidity now doesn't help.
    Good to remove old fluid though. I flushed the 69 Vette once; longer job than I thought but was satisfied when completed.

      That’s why I prefer to buy the smaller DOT3 brake fluid bottles. And like someone mentioned, you do this simple job enough times and you’ll probably never need to flush the system. 😊👍🏻

      Hello from the Sunshine State in the US 🇺🇸😊
      I don’t have a video about removing and replacing the fuel sending unit, but fortunately, there are lots of UA-cam videos on the subject.
      Like this one, for example: ua-cam.com/video/-AevqfdWtBQ/v-deo.html

    Great video! I've always heard that brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, doing this will surely help with that too!👍

      Thanks. Yes, even after you open a new bottle you have to try to use all of it. It has a shelf life but I have no idea how long that is 🤷🏻‍♂️
      Fresh brake fluid is kinda important 😆👍🏻

    Probably advisable to clean the cover first. Leaving brake fluid exposed to the air is not recommended.

      The moment you open a brand new bottle of brake fluid it starts absorbing moisture.
      But let’s be reasonable.
      Brake fluid will absorb approximately 2 to 4% of its volume in a year depending on ambient humidity. So what realistic impact do think say 10 minutes makes? 🤷🏻‍♂️
