Brake fluid.

Brake rebuild on the agenda. Looking at Lotus Service Notes, the capacity for the brakes 1.50 Liters, and the clutch 0.5. That's 2 liters, I have to say that seems enormous. I do intend to flush the system, but the master cylinder seems quite small. Allowing for bleeding I would need about 2.5 liters. Is this right?

Anyone got any preferences on Dot 4?

Not sure if Repco have it but if they they and you're an NRMA member there's a 20% discount this month.

I was right, I used a little less than a liter to flush the whole system.
