to drain power steering fluid you disconnect the return hose from the resevoir. to keep a clean area, you can attach a loose piece of hosing to the disconnected return hose and then run the hose to a suitable container to catch the fluid easier. when draining fluid, be sure to start engine and let it run at idle, turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times until the fluid stops runnig out. always use NEW power steering fluid.
