Not really sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I need to start somewhere.
My question is:
Once you open a container of brake fluid, and break the seal on top, How long does the fluid last in the container before it needs to be discarded?The reason for this question is that every time I need to top off or replace the brake fluid on some vehicle, I always purchase a new bottle. I always date the bottles when I open them, but have no idea how long I can keep them and use them safely. It is now hazardous recycling time in my area, and I would like to get rid of what is no longer any good and keep what is still usable. I usually won’t use an used but closed container of fluid after about a month after the date it was opened. Am I being overly cautious and wasteful in my thinking or not cautious enough?
I gratefully appreciate any and all opinions.
Thank You
Norman
