Brake Fluid
Hello,
I purchased some ATE blue racing brake fluid off of a friend who had some extra. Can someone send me in the correct direction in regards to finding a diy for flushing your brake lines?
Thanks!

You need a pressure bleeding kit such as power bleeder or mityvac type. Power bleeder type is simpler but more expensive.
Start with the right rear caliper. Top off the fluid, start bleeding until you notice new fluid coming out. Make sure to top off the fluid periodically. You don't want the level to drop below visible at the master cylinder reservoir. Then do the left rear, right front and left front. Top off the fluid and go for a slow test drive to see if the car stops first before really getting on it.
