Who said it should be put in the car??

What was said is it could have a 2 year shelf life..just like the reservoir has.
One would not add a 2 year shelf life fluid to the res. b/c it has already expired it's 2 year shelf life.

The main point is the question was asked about a can that had been opened and recapped a week ago...that fluid would not have hygroscopic contamination to the point of non/use.
I think we are all in agreement , one way or another.
I purposely buy brake fluid in the plastic 1 quart containers so that after I use some , I squezze the bottle until the fluid rises and then recap it.

This gets most of the air out of the container and as the container attemps to reform to it's original shape [plastic memory], it creates a partial vacuum inside that helps the cap reseal well and limits the amount of air contained..........
