Hi all....

Just got a call from a friend (really!!) who refilled her brake resevoir 
with steering fluid.   She said this happened about a month ago.. so the 
SF has been in for awhile.   Its a 2000 Dodge Caravan w/ 3.3 ltr. engine.
   
Question 1   If she flushes the system well with a lot of new brake 
fluid then bleeds it off is it going to be ok?
  
Question 2  Should she be concerned about Steering fluid attacking the 
rubber parts or seals of the brake system?

thanks in advance as always,

Bill Hook
