I am looking at using the ATE super blue for my brakes and I am doing a BBK. I need to bleed and flush the system and put enough in for the brakes how much does it take, and How much will I need to use the same stuff for my clutch lines? Thank I have searched and couldn't find anything One bottle is a litre so I am wonder how many bottles I need to. And if I should use the Ate super blue for the clutch lines.

Brakes is just under 2 prints, right at 1.75 pints. The clutch is about .5 pint. So, 2 quarts is plenty.

Cool thanks it comes in liters and I forgot all the conversions back in elementary school well not all of them but I was trying to figure if 2 liters will be enough which it sounds like it should. Has anyone used the ATE Super blue in the clutch?

does anyone see anything about why it could be a problem?
This is just as good as motul 600 from what I have been told for alot less.
