[6pack] Brake Fluid Capacity

[Foster, Stan]

I don't have any record of this being answered, hopefully Dave got the info he
needed out of band.

I recently drained my system to fit new brake lines and I refilled and bled
the system last night. I used the entire contents of two 325ml bottles of
DOT5. The first one filled both chambers of the master cylinder. The second
one filled the plumbing with a small amount ending up on the bleed bottle. I
have bleed valves on all four corners so I don't have a lot of waste.

Hello List!

I am looking to switch to DOT 5 brake fluid and, with a small bottle running
about $8, I didn't want to buy much more than I had to. Can someone please
tell me about how much fluid it takes to flush and fill the system (brake
lines and reservoir)? Many thanks!

Cheers!

Dave
