I pulled the reservoir off already, I just need to figure out how to clean it out. I'm kinda hesitant to spray carb/brake cleaner in there in fear of a) possibly thinning the oil and b) possibly damaging the plastic reservoir.

thanks guys!!!

Use a cheap turkey baster or similar to suck the fluid out as much as you can. Then just wipe it out with paper towels and refill.

Anything else is a gamble, External Parts (not lubricated or in contact with brake fluid) use spray on brake cleaner. Nothing else to be safe.

I got the reservoir pulled off the MC already. If I have time tonight I'll hose it out with a lil brake cleaner and then wipe out the remnants with a papertowel.

That fluid in there was diiiiiiiiiirty! Glad my dad made the comment that I might want to check out the brake fluid and change it!

makes you wonder about the rest of the brake system.

but hopefully the flush will fix that for me. We'll see I guess.

It's not like I'm going to be tracking this car anytime soon though, so it's got a year or so to work the nasty fluid out wiht the clean fluid
