Brake fluid flush
I bought the small bottle and it was plenty. Once you open a bottle you are supposed to use it or toss it. So I purchased 2 small bottles and only used the one. It was more than enough for the job.

I'm getting ready to change mine as well. I've been searching and found nothing but conflicting info. I've read that all DOT 4 is synthetic but it's not all labeled as such. I've also read that there is conventional and synthetic. I'm curious what everyone is using for your fluid changes?

It's hard to see but the tubing goes to the bottom of the bottle. When you stop squeezing the bottle the fluid in the tube returns to the bottle.

Did you guys replace your MC gaskets or did you reuse them? I have no problem replacing them. The MOCO tells you to pretty much replace anything you take a part and a lot of times it's not necessary. Just asking.
