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

that should do it. make sure that the res cap fit tight and water is not entering the system from the cap not sealing well. good luck, rm

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.
