1. Yes, level as possible. It will not take all the 2 quarts but close.
2. Let the old fluid drain completely until it stops dripping, replace the fluid. If I was going to flush it I would: drain it, refill, then drive around for awhile, drain, and refill again.
3. I don't think there's any other way to do it without the pump, its cheaper - just buy one.
