TR2/3/3A Flushing break lines on TR3

On a TR3 how many pumps on the break pedal does it take to get a complete flush of fluid from the reservoir to the back left break (longest run)?

Well no one answered yet; I don't know if anyone has kept track of the number of pumps. For me I just keep an eye on the fluid coming out until it runs clear and clean. I tried to err on the side of too many pumps, I never worried about wasting a little fluid.
