... AND do a great service to the environment in which our children have to live.
Bought a little electronic [url=https://www.amazon.com/ITEQ-Liquid-Tester-Indicators-Calibrated/dp/B076SC377J]brake fluid tester at Amazon. I am not the guy who trusts cheap electronics, but this little thing (pen shaped, uses a single AA battery) - when tested for proper calibration - showed very good performance and accuracy. If anybody is interested I can explain how the test works later.
Anyway, once I had gained trust into it, I pulled out an old plastic bottle of DOT4, which I had opened two years ago, used half, closed properly at the time, and stored (don't know why). Now think about this. The instructions in ANY manual say NEVER use such fluid. And guess what, the fluid was no just okay (under 3% of water contents) but is was almost like new. There is NO doubt that it will be just fine.
Now guess how many half empty bottles of DOT4 end up in a land fill each year, on each continent. We can do better than this.
If you wonder whether it's worth it, consider looking at the [url=https://msdspds.castrol.com/ussds/amersdsf.nsf/Files/669C28406EEE404480258611005818CF/%24File/2675153.pdf]safety data sheet for DOT 4.
