Brake Oil Bleeding
BTW man, it's not OIL it is fluid. And if you have never bled brakes before you need to find a general how-to for BRAKE FLUID BLEEDING or BLEEDING BRAKES, it sounds like you may still be a little confused about the sequence of events that need to take place to force the old FLUID out of the system.
Like I said, I'm fine with about 80% of the sequence of steps. The remainder 20% that I am asking here about really are about the fluid mixing issues and if there is anything special we need to do that is not mentioned inthat article I posted. Thank you for correcting me on the Oil/Fluid thing BTW.
The order that migs647 posted is different than the article. It's very likely the older is different for the Evo 8 vs 10. I would check the factory service manual to be sure.
Actually I posted the wrong order
. That is the article I used when I did my job about 5 months ago. Had it in memory wrong
. Corrected my post.

To your question about mixing fluids, don't worry about it. It's best if you can get an automatic brake bleeder or have someone help you. You'll begin bleeding the brakes (in the order posted) and as soon as the reservoir is low, then you begin adding fluid...and then just continue adding it until you're all done. That's really the best you can do. Good luck
Glad to hear that you took my previous post exactly the way I intended. Just looking out for a fellow Evo dude
