| I guess everybody has a trick for doing this. My 360 has the integral reservoirs. I filled them up and then pumped all the fluid out through the bleeder into a large calibrated syringe. I marked the syringe with the required amount, not really sure how much but 41 cc comes to mind. After a pad change I pump all the remaining fluid out, load the syringe with the correct amount of fresh fluid and inject it through the bleeder, done. If the pads are not new, pump the brakes up to force
the pads against the rotor and add an amount estimated to be the volume of the piston extension or repeat the previous step. I know this is heresy, but to seal the bleeder fitting I roll a piece of Teflon tape between my fingers to form a thread, and wrap it on the nipple several threads away from the seat, works great for me. All components and tools should be very clean.
