Buy three or four small bottles or just two of the big ones. You gotta bleed the crap out of them.

Try to plug the brake line with something, don't pinch it, so your not draining the entire line back to the M/C.

Nah you'll just need one large one but I'd buy a second if you have problems. Try to plug the brake line with something, don't pinch it, so your not draining the entire line back to the M/C.
I don't think I even used an entire small bottle when I did mine.
