Quick brake bleeding question

[Fantom]

I'm about to replace the fluid in my 172 for RBF600. I have syphoned out most of the reservoir. My dad has lent me one of them ezebleed kits.
The problem is that the current fluid is quite new and will look a very similar colour to the new stuff. Just wonder how much I should bleed out of each caliper to ensure I have replaced the whole lot? As I won't notice the new stuff coming through

Thanks
Steve

Should have got Ate Super-blue

A litre will more more than enough mate, so 250ml through each corner will see you right. Start with furthest caliper away and don't let the reservoir run too low/empty.

This mate, dont let the reservoir run dry or you will get air in the system.

Did mine yesterday along with racing lines, super is with the ATE fluid. Don't let master cylinder run dry, having to bleed that will make for a bad day.

All done and road tested. Never bled brakes before but it was easy and no pedal pumping involved. I reckon I used about 750ml but it appeared to be a lighter colour coming out than the original stuff

Glad you got sorted

Cheers for the advice

It's lighter because it is cleaner Yh I had a about the same, means you got some to top up or spare if you ever need any

No worries. Fresh/decent brake fluid makes a difference and can often get overlooked

Once you've replaced it with the blue stuff, surely next time you come to bleed them you'll have the same problem if putting blue in again!?

They do a Ate Supergold mate

So just alternate between them
