Water in Brakeline
On my ski boat trailer I noticed the surge brakes pushing back further than normal. I opened the brake fluid res. and noticed water. What do I need to do, just drain, refill and bleed? Anything else. Thanks all. Scott

What Ratman said + make sure you flush some fluid all the way through the system as brake fluid tends to absorb water and you need to get all of it out.
