Default How to change Power Steering Fluid??

Does any one know how to change your power steering fluid? I bought some Redline Fluid to put it there, and was wondering if any one had a write up or tips/pointers.
Thanks,
Ron

Cleanliness, very important.
That fluid can strip paint.
Even oily fingerprints will cause permanent spots on your paint.

I just pumped out the fluid that was in the reservoir and refilled with the redline fluid. Ran the car for a while and repeated several times. You need to change more than 1L as that's the capacity. Everytime you replace what's in the reservoir, it gets diluted.
Used a suction pump.
