Gray "sludge" in brake reservoir
I know this has been talked about before, but here it is again. I had the booster and master cylinder off for booster repairs. I'm ready to put it back together again, but when I removed the brake master cylinder I noticed a moderate amount of the blackish/gray sludge settled in it. I assume a certain amount of this is normal over time, but how much is not okay? Without rebuilding the whole system, is there anything I should do before reinstalling things? I know I've heard someone say they flushed their system with alcohol before putting new fluid in, but would that be indicated if I'm only refilling? TIA.
