Frothy Brake Fluid

[gbsean]

my brake fluid appears frothy. like the head of a beer. any ideas. seems like there is water in system

 

[crownvic96]

is it in your resevoir?

when i changed out my accumulator ball the other day my PM motor went crazy and the motor pickup side of the resevoir puked and turned all the fluid in that side of the resevoir into a milky iced coffee looking color.

 

[gbsean]

yes..but it seems to only do it when it is raining or really humid

is the fluid appear cloudy or otherwise discolored? wouldn't be a bad idea to replace the m/c cap seal and flush out the fluid.

 

[gbsean]

yes i was thinking about doing that. Brakes work great otherwise. Was also going to get a new motor.
