How does moisture get into a sealed system? I am not trying to argue with you, but it seems reasonable to me that in a sealed system, assuming no leaks and that the cap is never removed, not much moisture will be absorbed.

The system is only sealed to a point. Brake fluid DOT 3 and DOT 3 -4 will absorb moisture. Only a full syn, like DOT 5 will not. Our system is not compatible with DOT 5 DON'T USE IT!!!!
Use a high quality fluid like VALVOLINE DOT 3 -4 semi syn.
On how often to change brake fluid and the clutch master fluid....If the fluid is dark and not transparent then change it. Dark fluid is a indication that there is moisture in the system. Moisture is a bad thing, it will destroy the brake system.

Get together with your fellow local S2KI members about doing the service on your car. I am sure there are plenty of them that can help you perform this in your driveway on some weekend. It is easy to clean out the brake system and will only cost about $8.00 for the fluid and a pizza for your friends. The trans fluid and rear dif are easy to do as well. Sparkplugs should be fine but, inspect them anyway. Check the serpentine belt for cracks and frays. The coolant can be changed at this time too. I know the book says 100K but, that

Yeah you guys are right, I should start doing more of this myself. And for the things I can't do, start using a reliable local independent shop in my area ... ie Autowave which I've heard good things about. Any others?
