Todd,
That seems like a whole lot of fluid to me. I see a change in color
of brake fluid at the bleeder, and at that point I figure I'm getting
clean fluid. I'd say I typically use half the fluid you do. If you
were doing it the old "helper pushing the brake pedal" method, your
helper would certainly have leg cramps! So I guess, question to the
group, how much fluid to you typically pump through when doing a
brake system flush/bleed?

marked in 1/2 quart increments. I then put 1/2 quart through each
caliper, ensuring I've flushed out the old fluid and replaced it with new.
