When do you put brake fluid?
You top off brake fluid when the brakes are changed. If the brake fluid is low there is a reason. Get them checked out at that time. Most auto technicians will not top off brake fluid for this reason. The fluid lasts as long as the breaks.

If the caliper leaks brake fluid, the immediate problem isn't the brake pads - it's the brake lines (or the connections). Get that fixed pronto!
What should you do if you accidentally poured washer fluid instead of brake fluid in the brake reservoir?
The first thing you should do is remove the master cylinder so you can dump the brake fluid reservoir out. If you have used the brakes, it is a very good idea to get the entire brake system bled and replace all the brake fluid.
Where do you put brake fluid on 1999 Saab 9.5?
if your brake fluid is low, you probably need to replace your brake pads. If your pads are good and you fluid is low, you have a leak somewhere. By replacing your pads, the brake fluid level will rise to the proper level. If you add fluid now, then replace your pads, brake fluid will leak out the top of your fluid reservoir and most likely eat the paint off what ever it spills on. Brake fluid and car paint DO NOT MIX.
If you make a mistake and put motor oil into your brake fluid could you lose your brakes and how long would it take to go through the system before you have no brakes.?
Good time to replace all the brake fluid. Remove the brake lines from the Master Cylinder and pump the master cylinder dry. Add fresh brake fluid from an unopened can and bleed the master cylinder. Reinstall the brake lines and then bleed all brake lines until you see clean fluid. Keep adding fluid to the Master Cylinder until you are done.Good time to replace all the brake fluid.

Where do you put clutch fluid in a 1995 ford escort?
It uses brake fluid in the brake fluid reservoir. The clutch fluid (brake fluid) is fed by the brake fluid reservoir. The clutch fluid reservoir is just beneath the brake fluid reservoir. So, add fluid to the brake fluid reservoir to fill the clutch fluid, also.
