Put towel on tank. Undo brake resivoir. Hook Mighty Vac cup and tube up to brake bleeder. Pump up Mighty Vac and crack bleeder. Keep resivoir full, and the Might Vac pumped until you see clear bubbless fluid going into the cup. Close up shop and see how it works. Good luck

and use something like large plastic trash bags over your towels to cover your paint in case you have a large spill to keep it from soaking through the towel. Brake fluid is very bad on paint. Maybe it's being overcautious, but I always like to be extra careful with brake fluid...especially with something that only takes a few seconds and is reusable in the trash can later.

Speedbleeders!! I replaced my lines due to APE install and took less the 10 mins to do. The make life so much easier. I have ABS and have not had any issues with the module. But I never turned the key on either until after the lines were replaced and the lines bled.
