Hi there, I am about to flush out my brake fluid for the first time. I have a fairly good handle on the procedure, but have a few questions. 1) order: I understand it to be rear right, left rear, front right, front left - outside caliper of each first. 2) amount of fluid to draw out: my main question. When drawing the fluid, I have read a few posts saying it was sometimes difficult to tell when the new fluid was all the way through the system. I have a graded resevoir, so I was hoping someone would be able to give me an approximation of the amount of old fluid that will come from each caliper to ensure that the fresh fluid is all the way through. Please indicate how much from each wheel and then each caliper if you can - for example: right rear, pull 200 ml from outside, 25 ml from inside, second wheel... I have a liter of the fresh fluid. 3) any other locations to flush: I am planning to draw fluid from each wheel, but nowhere else. 4) pumping the brake: I am planning to draw the fluid through the system using a handheld pump at around 20 PSI refilling the resevoir after each caliper. I am doing the job by myself, so was not planning to pump the brake. Am I making a mistake and leaving a pool of old fluid in the system someplace? I think that's it - I know its going to be pretty basic stuff for a lot of you, but this is new to me, and I want to do it right the first time. Thanks a lot.
