Hi all, got 80K on my 2017 Camaro Conv and was told to get the brake fluid flushed and think I can do it myself and watched a few videos and found this on Amazon and think it will work great?

Getting 2 32oz Valvoline DOT 3 & 4 Synthetic Brake Fluid, don't race, just a daily driver. So far brake seam fine, just don't want to have issues and I know I should have done this 5-6 years ago as it's not the miles but the time that moisture can get in the fluid.

Going to do the Pass rear, then the driver front, then the driver rear, then pass front, from what I recall?

As for the Brake bleeder system about 10-14 PSI I am thinking as less then 10 PSI won't push hard enough and 14 PSI should be good?

What advice should I know? I will pre test this unit without fluid on the master cylinder first to see if there is any pressure loss before I add 32 oz of brake fluid.

Thanks
Christopher
