Going to flush my brakes. How much fluid do I need? is there a special technique for abs and traction control? Any fluid recommendation for brake fluid for street car? No tracking.


TIA

Russell -- Use a pressure bleeder with ASC. The manual method might work, but there's a good risk of getting air in the system. You can (probably) get away with 1 can of ATE Super Blue (or typ 200 if you're already using SB). Remember that once the seal's been cracked on the can, there's no use in storing it. Back when I was buying cans of the stuff, I used one with plenty left over (but I also have no ASC).

good luck!

definetly get 2 quarts if it's your first time.
