Very interesting indeed!
I never thought about bleeding the abs valves.
Does/has anyone done this before?

Good article and lots of good technical details. Unfortunately it doesn't go into the details of how to activate the ABS which is obviously vehicle specific. The question is .. it it really necessary?

How to actuate the ABS, easy. Flush, go out and hammer the brakes a few times (wet works even better) and then flush again.

Typical. Race car people have known for YEARS that brake fluid absorbs water. The water diffuses through the system (it does NOT stay local). Water in the fluid causes corrosion.

And ABS only circultes fluid THROUGH THE ABS SYSTEM. They seem to imply that with ABS fluid circulates through the brake system to resevoir to caliper and around.

Nothing like millions of your tax dollars spent to find out what is already known.
