I did have to open the 2nd liter and poured the entire liter in the Motive power bleeder. I only ended up using just a little more than a liter.

With all the air in the line I had to fill the bleeder can instead of just using it for air pressure as I done in the past for simple bleeding.

So if you are just bleeding (1) liter is more than enough but, for hose replacement I would recommend (2) Liters unless you are a pro and not a DIY hack like me.

Thank you for the info.It just seemed to me that more fluid would be needed when replacing the hoses because of the four empty new ones.
I planned on filling the bleeder also because denatured alcohol is supposed to do a good on the clean up which is otherwise difficult.
I was going to bleed each corner after I replaced each hose,but I like your method better.
I'm definitely a DIY hack, also.
