it seems that the safe and easy procedure for changing out the Power Steering fluid, assuming there are no other issues, is to(with engine off) remove the old fluid from the reservoir with a siphon bulb and refill with fresh. start vehicle cycle the steering wheel back and forth for a minute or two. kill engine and repeat until your heart is content(more or less).
