Should I just ignore this anyway since I'm going to be putting in DOT4 fluid? I should just do that at the end and not refill between each line install?
You want to plug the line as best you can when you do the change over, I lost only a few drops of brake fluid.

You don't want to let the fluid drain free as this will introduce air into the ABS controller leaving you in a state where you are unable to bleed all the air out of the system without the assistance of the Nissan Consult III.
