Brake Fluid Testing strips

[Vittorio Bares]

Thanks all - from feedback I've received from other forums as well - I
believe the conclusion is, change your fluid every 2 years or as Cody
has indicated below.

If you're doing performance driving more than a couple times per year -
then more often ;)

At the shop we used to use test strips, but these days use one of these:

In my opinion though I'd say just stick to the bi-yearly changes, and on
a 
new-to-you car cjange it at the first convienient chance you get to 
establish when your 2 year cycle starts.
