Brake Fluid: Testing and Inspection
NOTE: Swollen rubber parts indicate the presence of petroleum in the brake fluid.
To confirm that contamination exists, make the following test:

-
Separation of the fluid into distinct layers will indicate mineral oil content.
If there is any question of mineral oil content, drain system, flush thoroughly and replace all rubber parts.
