We\u2019ve told this particular fact in our previous blogs too and now we are saying it again that professional mechanics and automobile manufacturers recommend changing your brake fluid every 3 years or so because with continuous use the brake fluid tends to deteriorate. Also, the fluid\u2019s propinquity to water diminishes the brake\u2019s heat resistance and can cause brake system corrosion.<\/p>\n

You can undergo replacing the brake fluid by simply bleeding the car brakes. Don\u2019t mix up this modern technique with the traditional involvement of leeches and a medieval barber, here it just means flushing the braking system of trapped air, something that can be accomplished following few steps put together by the experts of largest auto parts dealers delivering Spare Parts for Tata Trucks<\/a>, BP Auto Spares India.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 1: <\/strong>First find the small nozzle, technically known as brake bleeder screw which is positioned behind each of your brakes. Jack up the vehicle, if you can, that way you will easily find the nozzle.<\/p>\n

Step 2: <\/strong>Use a proper set of wrench or socket to unscrew the nozzles. Special wrenches particularly known as bleeder wrenches are used to open the brake bleeder screw and help prevent circling the screw\u2019s hex-head.<\/p>\n

Step 3: <\/strong>Now take a small flexible piece of hose and place it over the end of the bleeder screw and put the other end of the hose in the jar. Now fill the jar with the brake fluid so that the end of the hose is completely submerged in it. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 4: <\/strong>Now ask someone to slowly pump your brake pedal a few times.<\/p>\n

Step 5: <\/strong>Once the brake pedal has been pumped a few times and is currently pressed down, open the bleeder screw. The brake fluid will squirt out. If the air is trapped within the brake lines, you will see bubbles in the fluid.<\/p>\n

Step 6: <\/strong>Now, before the brake pedal is released, tighten the bleeder screw so that the air is not sucked back into the brake lines when the pedal is released.<\/p>\n

Step 7: <\/strong>Continue with the tightening and loosening of the screw until no more air bubbles spurt out with the fluid.<\/p>\n

Step 8: <\/strong>Lastly, fill up the master cylinder with the brake fluid until it reaches the \u201cFull\u201d line level.<\/p>\n
