Kim,
As you are changing the fluid, you would be bleeding the system at the
same time.
Samo-samo.

Do one of the back wheels first, until the fluid changes colors, then
the other, then to the right front, then the left.
You will be able to see the difference in the color of the fluid as it
is coming out of the bleeder.
Old---Dark
New ----almost clear.

Just be darn sure that you don't let the master run out of fluid in the
process, or you will have to start all over.

Later,
