Tony,

Flushing the brake fluid - very straightforward.  But the rear brake
reservoir is hard to access to add new fluid.  I used a small funnel with a
length of clear fuel hose attached.  Just be sure to keep enough fluid in
the reservoir so you don't get air in the lines....etc etc etc.

Flushing the coolant:  the drain plug is one of the bolts holding the water
pump cover in place - not obvious if you don't have a manual (lower left
side of motor).  Also in refilling the radiator, there's a small bolt/plug
near the filler cap that you have to loosen or take out. This lets air out
of the radiator when you're adding the new coolant.  The coolant won't go in
unless you take this out.  

Can't help with the brake pulsing.  Does sound like a warped disc, and
AFAIK, a warp you can't see with the naked eye is still big enough to cause
a pulse in the brakes. 

HTH,
