try to syphon out. If you get a small rubber hose 3/16 or a little bigger you can suck out the brake fluid. The fluid does not travel very much and if you address this quick you may save a bleed of the brakes. Be sure to use Dot 4 when replacing althogh your 86 may do well without this as it does not have antilock brakes the fluid should be used . Look at maximum temperature for fluid. The higher the bestter. Castrol makes Dot 3-4 fluid that goes to over 425 degrees. Much higher than any even standard Dot 4 fluid.
Power steering fluid may also be able to be syphoned this way.
Also note that thre manual five speed transmission fluid is motor oil 10W 30 this dipstick is on passenger side under exhaust manifold. It is filled at dipstick. Are you sure of your fluid portals? Read manual in pouch in car.
