[andrewp1998]

both have been done a couple yrs ago but I want to change out them and go with the synthetic.

Thanks

Probably about a quart or so. But to be safe, buy at least a quart bottle and a small bottle to go with it. Valvoline brake fluid is a perfectly good choice.

Also, speed bleeders are awesome.

Simple.....Purchase more than you think you'll need.....and then return the unused bottles for a refund.

 

[andrewp1998]

can i save the leftover and seal it up for next time?

 

[AP9]

No, once you break the seal, it should be used within a couple weeks. Otherwise, it will absorb too much moisture.

ok , I have a big bottle (32oz) and still wondering if I need the small 12 oz or another 32 oz?

 

[AP9]

If doing both brakes and clutch, I'd get the extra 12 oz.

Even a fully sealed plastic bottle will absorb moisture over time.

The fully sealed metal can containers much less so, but still some moisture absorption over a long time period.

Yes all of it is. Just by price and it is better to have more than what you need.

Hydraulic clutches need less fluid than brake systems, I think you have enough fluid to do both jobs.
