Had an ABC, Oil change and Rodeo!
Yesterday I had a B service and ABC flush but it was the rodeo that made me laugh. My local Indy sent me a video (wish I could upload it but it’s an mp4) and I thought he'd pimped my car out. Funniest thing I've ever seen that beautiful silver mistress acting like a raging bull!
Anyway, I feel that I'm off to a good start now. I'll have the brakes changed next month and continue on a regular basis to change all the fluids.

RoundTheBenz,
As a bit of added insurance for the ABC pump, you might want to consider installation of a Magnefine magnetic filter on the return line just ahead of the reservoir. Uses a 1/2" sized filter for around $15 for the filter and 2 clamps. Several postings on here about it. Here's a link to one of them:
