    ^ im, by far, not an expert pero.... di ba hiwalay ang fluid reservoir ng clutch master and brake master cylinder.

    * roniblade....Yes, clutch reservoir has a small a black cap an next to break reservoir.

    I assume it's the clutch master because it's near the vessel, takes DOT 3 fluid only. It' s in the corner, Inside the vessel is a rounded, black rubber like float. Do you think so?

    * Carrie Tella.... DOT 3 fluid is a hydroscopic fluid, meaning it will fulls out moisture out of the air.

    Most problem of why brake fluid turn black is because of moisture even sitting there in which in time goes black and that can lead to break seal going. This causes accidents when your brake pedal gives out because the seal pop'd. That is why newer car recommend to use DOT 3, DOT 4 or even DOT 5 if required because of boiling point and moist prevention. Even so brake fluid need to replace every two years as preventative maintenace at saka mura lang naman ang brake fluid and very easy to flushed.
