Hi guys,
Got cruiser back from mechanic after they replaced accumulator/booster and it's got green fluid in the brake system.
I've never seen anything other than clear/amber type for all DOTs other than DOT5.

Only type I found was Pentosin CHF 11S hydraulic fluid which is not spec'd to Toyota at all, and certainly not brake system.
I've search forums and can find anything.
Should also mention it's now leaking from the middle grommit OR a fracture I'm the reservoir.
I know I'm gonna have to bleed it cos it's too low now and I can't mix brake fluids to top up, especially when I don't know what type it is.
Another question, can I bleed my cruiser just like any other car? Or do I need special equipment or procedures to bleed the master cylinder, booster, and lines?
I've read about it before but I can't remember and was confused from all the takes on it anyway.
Appreciate any help.
