Default Brake Fluid

I'm doing the sjm abs delete and I'm gonna fill up and bleed my brakes tonight. How much brake fluid should I buy?

Are you completely flushing the lines? Or just doing the install? If you're just doing the install one pint of brake fluid is all you'll need - just enough to replace what you lose when you cut the lines. When you bleed the brakes top off the reservoir and keep an eye on it during the bleeding process. Add more as necessary.

I'm completely flushing the lines. My brake fluid is dark black and when it rains all day my brakes seem to turn to mush so there's probably moisture in the line so I'm gonna flush it completely. I just went ahead and bought a quart so that should probably do the trick
