Is there any special procedure to flushing the fluid because of the ABS ?

Nothing special, just keep the brake fluid level up while flushing and bleeding all four brake calipers.

Don't flush that which is sitting in the reservoir through
the system. No need for it. Get what you can out of there and put fresh in. (kinda obvious but thought I'd say it anyway)

You don't need a syringe. A turkey baster (new) works fine. You don't nee a power bleeder. and MOST importantly do NOT use tissue paper in that master cyl. The fine paper particulates are very BAD for your system. Use lintless paper or a clean shop rag and look closely for anything left behind. Even very small contaminates are additive and will accumulate at the worst places.
