[Shop-talk] Brake Bleeding: Another Twist

[Doug Braun]

Hello,

I just noticed this in the Gunson catalog.
Does anybody have any experience with it or a similar product?
Maybe you could make a simple probe for use with a ohmmeter to do the same thing?

BRAKE FLUID TESTER
Brake Fluid is a hydroscopic fluid that absorbs
moisture through brake hoses etc reducing the
boiling point of brake fluid and causing deterioration.
Regular checks on the brake fluid will ensure the
brakes function correctly and safely.
How it works?
A simple tool for testing the percentage of water in
brake fluid is the Brake Fluid tester. Simply immerse
the probe end of the tester into the brake fluid and
read the results.
Green indicates <1.5% water OK
Yellow indicates 1.5<3% water MARGINAL
Red indicates 3% < water FAIL
