Default Fluid Changing Help

I know this has probably been explained a billion times. I can't find the posts. Sorry.

I have no clue how to perform a Brake Fluid flush.. If anyone has any good documentation? Or a how-to ? Thanks.

Also, I need to know the torque on the tranny drain/fill, oil pan drain bolt, diff drain/fill.. thanks!

Anthony

Motive Brake Bleeder is the simplest tool for brake bleeding by one person. I used it to bleed the brakes on E430 and LS400, you need an adapter to use on European cars.

This is how I bleated my cars:

1. Remove the old fluid from the master cylinder with a syringe as much as soppible.
2. Refill the master cylinder with dot-4 fluid to the rim.
3. Fill the Motive Brake Bleeder with 2 pints dot-4 fluid.
4. Pump the Motive Brake Bleeder to about 25-28 PSI.
5. Open the farthest bleeder valve from master cylinder first until new-clear fluid coming out, then close the bleeder valve. Repeat the procedure for three other bleeder valves, with the closest bleeder valve from master cylinder last. You may have to pump the Motive Brake Bleeder few more pumps after bleeding the first one or two wheels so that the pressure will not drop below 25 PSI.
6. Disconnect the Motive Brake Bleeder from master cylinder, avoid spilling any brake fluid on any part of the car.
7. Add or remove brake fluid from master cylinder as needed.
8. Start engine, applying the brake several times to check for brake feel, it should be as firm as before bleeding.

I will be changing fluids with someone else. I am still unsure of the brake flushh.. Does anyone have any documentation for it??

Or, at least, what brake line is furthest to closest from the master cylinder. Thanks.
