Replacing front brake lines
« on: 25 July 2016, 02:22:10 pm »
Morning all...


I'm installing a 2-line HEL setup soon, how much DOT4 do you think I'll need to fill and bleed it?


I've never bled brakes before hence the question and there are various size bottles available.


Cheers...Dan

x1 500ml bottle should do and with plenty to spare I bought 2 just in case as I was replacing front & rear fluid but still only needed 1 bottle with a bit to spare.

It's better to have to much than not enough
