I'm sure this has been covered before, but since I have spent the last 45 minutes timing out the search I'm going to ask it anyway.
How do you guys clean out the hydraulic lines when you rebuild the brake system on your car. I hate to flush them out with $50 worth of DOT 5 brake fluid. When I took the master cylinder off it had about 1/4" of brown sludge in the bottom so I know there is no use going any farther until I get the lines cleaned. I am rebuilding the wheel cylinders also, but I want to get everything cleaned out before I start on them.
I would also appreciate any help or pointers since I am mechanically challenged to say the least.
