Brake Master Cylinder
Your brake master cylinder is here. It is
filled with DOT-3 brake fluid.
There are only two reasons why the
brake fluid level in your master cylinder
might go down. The first is that the
brake fluid goes down to
an
acceptable
level during normal brake lining wear.
When new linings are put in, the fluid
goes back up. The other reason is that
fluid is leaking out of the brake system.
If it is, you should have your brake
system fixed, since a leak means that
sooner or later your brakes won't work
well, or won't work at all.
So,
it isn't a good idea to "top
ofr '
your brake fluid. Adding brake fluid
won't correct a leak. If you add fluid
when your linings are worn, then you'll
have too much fluid when you get new
brake linings. You should add (or
remove) brake fluid, as necessary, only
when work is done on the brake
hydraulic system.
