Hi HomieGohan,
suggest filling the Speedibleed with 2-3 bottles of Motul (without going over the maximum fill line)
This should ensure enough fresh brake fluid to push out the old from each brake caliper as they are bled. It may be possible to tell when it’s done if the fluid changes color to clear and all of the bubbles are gone.
Suggest checking out this link on the old style bleeding method as it will help also:

As for brake bleed sequence:
Driver side rear
Passenger side rear
Driver side front outer then inner
Passenger side front outer then inner

Hi Tom,
I'm about to do the whole brake system on my FK8. I want to buy this speedi-bleed kit after reading your review on it. I have 2 questions though - 1: How did you proceed or would you recommend removing all the OEM fluid from the system before I add Motul brake fluid? 2nd: Is there a correct pattern on these cars bleeding the brake system after adding the motul? I remember from minor previous experience you start from the rear right and work your way up in a Z pattern?
