Flushing the power steering fluid

[moses]

Has anybody done this and maybe have any tips on how to do it? I can't seem to find any bleeder screw that would make this easy.

why would you want to bleed it?

I am going to try to flush the whole system and replace with synthetic. I've not found much info on how to do this without an external pump.

i've heard people d/c the lowest hose and draining it all. too much work for me. i just do it the lazy way.Open the resivoir and suck out all i can using a pump/syringe/turkey baster whatever.Refill with new fluid. Drive a day. Repeat a few times until it's a nice purdy red. That should be good enough. It's amazing how many people neglect the power steering fluid.

My p/s fluid are being leaked everyday, where is the first place I should look to diagose the problem, hose, reservoir, or pump.

Check the two clamps holding the lines onto the resivoir. Every 240 Ive checked (when the owners arent anal like me which is rare) has had both of these loose, suprisingly....
