Best way to flush a PS system is slowly. Empty the PS Pump reservoir with something like a turkey baster. (BIG eye dropper). Replace with fresh fluid, drive car for an hour or two and repeat. Keep doing this until the fuid stays clean. This technique will minimize breaking junk loose in the system and damaging seals.
