Draining Brake fluid

[ivan12]

I'm doing the cobra brake swap with SS lines and Master cylinder. I want to flush out the old fluid and put in a couple of fresh bottles. Do I just open up all four bleed screws at the same time and pump until there's no more? How do I go about this so I get "all" of the old fluid out?

You do one at a time and you start with the furthest caliper from the MC (pass rear) and work your way to the driver front.
Easiest way to get all of it out and fast is by using a pressure brake bleeder. Thats what I did and it made it 100x easier then pumping the brakes. Here is the brake bleeder I used http://www.amazon.com/Motive-Products-Custom-Power-Bleeder/dp/B0002KM5ME/ref=pd_sbs_auto_5
Filled it up and pumped it up to 10psi and just cracked the valve open and let it spew out fluid until they ran clear. Makes the one man show a heck of a lot easier and convenient.

when i did mine, i started with the passenger rear, cracked the valve open, put avaccum line on and ran it into an old 2 ltr bottle, had a buddy pump the brakes till i seen clear fluid com out, make sure to keep the resevour full, then moved to the drive rear, then passenger front and driver front, did the same thing to them. After that i just did a quick bleed job just to make sure... Took about 20 mins and was done....

I have one of those bleeders too, and it works awesome on most of my vehicles.

But, you can just open the bleeders, all four at once, and wait. keep checking and adding fluid, but eventually it will all run out.

On 96-98 it's the screw on one in the pic.
