Your brake master cylinder reservoir
is
on the driver’s
side of the engine compartment. It is filled with
DOT-3
brake fluid. See
Engine Compartment
Overview
on page
5-
12.
There are only two reasons why the brake fluid level
in the reservoir 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
level 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
off1
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.
If
you have too much
-.-._e
fluid, it can spill on
the engine. The fluid will burn if the engine
is
hot enough. You
or
others could be burned,
and your vehicle could be damaged. Add brake
fluid only when work is done on the brake
hydraulic system.
