I would like to know how to go about changing the fluid in my 2.3 99 auto with ABS,like how much do i replace it with and in what order each wheel?

I just changed my brake fluid this morning. I used the gunson eezibleed kit. Makes it soooo easy. First you need to remove the big black plasitc enine cover/scuttle drain thingy ( 3 bolts) to access the brake fluid reservoir. Follow instructions (to the letter !) with the eezibleed kit. Correct bleeding order order is front left, front right, right rear, left rear. Whole job took about 2 hours (removing roadwheels etc for easier access to bleed nipples). I used almost a litre of brake fluid as the old stuff was almost black. I doubt if it ever was changed. Difference in braking power and pedal feel is immense.

 

Do a search on ebay for gunson - the kit cost me about
