the bleeding etc.? (LH rear, RH rear, LH front, RH front). Any do's or
don't's?

Nope.
Doing it that way will be fine....

I also have a attachment that screws into the bleeder slot, this way i dont
waste or drop any fluid. Is easy to make out of a short piece of clear
hosing one that dosnt dissolve when the brake fluid pass's thru it.
Good luck
Peter

Those cheap self-bleeder kits entailing a short piece of plastic tube placed
ina glass of fluid are not the best way to bleed brakes imho. They rely on
air not leaking past the loosened brake-bleeder nipple's threads.
I still grab someone to do the "down-pedal -lock bleeder, up-pedal-unlock
bleeder,down-pedal (repeat till bubbles disappear) technique. There's no
doubt then.
