Is there a "how to" out there or can someone explain to me how to do a power steering flush and refill on my 2.4 litre olds alero?

I see dirt in the resivoir of the pump and groaning noises on turning of the wheel so i want to try the flush first.

turn the steering wheel while doing the siphon so the fluid cycles you wont be able to flush it all but most is good enough

disconnect the return hose from the reservoir and cap the nipple on the reservoir. Route the hose into a conatiner. Start the car and add fluid until it comes out clean and new.
