does the sierra modle have abs? or both ?
i only think the sierra has abs with power steering etc all the accessories.

i think i should be right just doing like applying the brake releasing the fluid. etc technique qill be fine to get me to the shop and get done properly?

:P Easy then, just as you said, pump fluid through, but when changing hose's, do it quickly & don't let the master run dry..
