Title: How would Sir like...

... his brake fluid cooked?

Rare, medium, well done or plain old burnt to death?

Was simply going to bleed the fronts, but should probably do the lot... how much does the system hold :-\

I would buy 3x 500ml bottles and fill the system,then do a full,bleed thro,then fill and bleed again.
basically use the lot. Then all the knackerd crud etc has been removed,but looking at that you might benefit from silicone fluid,as it boils at higher temps and doesn't absorb as much moisture. :)

I wouldn't touch silicone fluid with a barge pole, personally, especially in a system that has had mineral fluid in it. 5.1 will be fine.

Just bleed fluid through each circuit in turn with an eezibleed until it runs clean. Do not let the reservoir empty. ::)
