"Coffee grounds" in break fluid
Recently bought a TR3 that had been sitting for a number of years, and had to bleed the break fluid due to air in the lines and it came out with what looked like coffee grounds in it. Does anyone know what causes this. Also is this a symptom that suggests I should be replacing parts etc.
I replaced with Castrol dot 4 and the breaks now feel firm and appear to be working fine.
