Post Going to rebleed the clutch, how much fluid?

While trying to push the slave cylinder piston back in, I let out too much fluid up top

So rather than dealing with the "conventional" way of bleeding again, I'm just ordering the Motive bleeder, and some 'super blue' brake fluid. How much do I need to order?

I don't know what size container that fluid comes in but I'd say that when I did mine I used nearly 2 quarts doing all 4 wheels and the clutch. However, I did make real sure I had clean fluid coming out so I might have "wasted" some. Just doing clutch alone maybe one would be enough but depends on size of can. Then there was the error in letting air in the line on the clutch the first time----------

Otherwise, a big thumbs up for the Motive bleeder. Sure makes it easy to do.

The ATE 'Super Blue' comes in 1 liter cans, and I'll only be doing the clutch for now.

For just the clutch, I would say at most a third of the ATE Super Blue can. I was able to bleed the brakes and the clutch with one can (1 liter) of fluid using the Motive power bleeder.

Same here, one can was enough for bleeding the brakes and the clutch.
