An easy way to do this is to just suck everything out of the master and replace that. Then every couple of weeks/months repeat. It will slowly clean up.

Gravity bleed it to get out the old fluid. Do NOT let the reservoir go dry while doing this.

Then do the standard crack bleeder, push pedal to floor and hold, close bleeder, release pedal, repeat procedure til the pedal feel returns and you'll be good to go. I use the Valvoline Synpower and it is working perfect with the new TEXtralia.
