What is motul fuild? Motor Fluid? Why motor fluid in the brakes?

Just get the big bottle of brake fluid. It will do.

Don't waste your money on Motul fluid on a street car. Buy Valvoline synpower brake fluid at your local auto parts store. The specs on those are just a tad lower.

If you are pressure bleeding, 4 bottles. If manually, could be as little as 4 and as many as 6.

Also, Motul DOT 5.1 is fine for the street.
So not use Motul 600 on street, unless you plan to beeld brakes every 6 to 9 months.

Peace,
Kevin
