Brake fluid is water soluable and can be removed with regular rubbing
alcohol.
I've replace a few of those crummy ATE clutch master cylinders, they seem
to go K-put at the first onset of cold weather.
To remove brake fluid from carpet pour a quart of regular rubbing alcohol
on the carpet, be generous 2 for a buck on sale.
Put newspapers under the carpet to catch the juice.
Repeat the process after the carpet is dry.
I actually just went to the car wash and blasted mine clean with rinse
water. When it quits foaming, its clean.
