I would use the brake system pump to do the rears, pass side first, then driver.
I would then do the fronts, pass side first, then driver.
I have not used a Motive Power system, but have used the Mityvac using the procedure just listed, using MV only on the fronts.
Yes, soaking the bleeder screws first may be helpful. I use a 6-point socket to break them loose first time.

Thats one thing I was confused about was using the system pump to do the rears with the system already being pressurized with the motive as opposed to vacuum with Mityvac. I looked hard at the Mityvac and saw either good or bad reviews with some saying it had trouble on the rears (without pump) and the Motive power bleeder was better. Ugh.
I havent done brake work in 20 years. It was alot more straightforward then.
