For those wondering how to change PS fluid, there are a couple of methods, depending on if you have or are willing to buy a couple of things.
Method 1 is simply to remove the return hose from the reservoir and let it drain (into a pan of course). Then replace the hose, fill the reservoir, start the vehicle, turn the wheel all the way one way, then all the way the other then return to center, no more, no less. Shut off the vehicle. Repeat the drain and fill of the reservoir, start the car and turn the wheel lock to lock again. Repeat the drain and fill of the reservoir. Repeat as many times as you need to to get the fluid clean. This works because the fluid constantly recirculates within the pump and reservoir until you turn the wheel. By turning the wheel lock to lock (only once), you are pumping the new fluid into the steering rack or gear (does not matter which you have, they flush the same) and pushes the old out. You need to repeat a few times to get it all. If you have Hydroboost brakes, once you have the steering gear flushed, repeat the whole process but pump the brake pedal 6-7 times and drain/fill the reservoir.
If you have or are willing to by a vacuum pump (not a suction gun, they are too big to be effective for this) then you can suck the fluid out into the recovery container that comes with most of them, it's a much cleaner way to go. Process is the same as above, but suck out the fluid instead of draining it. If you do your own auto maintenance, I would recommend picking one up, along with a larger recovery container. You don't use them for testing vacuum components anymore since there are not really any on modern cars, but I use mine a lot for fluid evacuation. You can also use an oil evacuater if you have or have access to one, but I find my hand pump to be more versatile when needed.
Either way you do it, you will need a minimum of 2 quarts (that's 4 bottles of this stuff) to get a good flush on a truck, likely a little less on a car, but don't buy too little, it keeps. If your fluid is really dirty and you do not want to use the expensive stuff for the flush part, get a gallon of the cheap stuff from Autozone and flush with that first, then for the last 2-3 changeouts use Lucas so that the Lucas fluid is in the system for use. You also do not need to get it perfectly clean, and you probably never will without changing parts. You'll get most of it out and the fluid will be a light color but not quite clear, that's good enough, unless you just really like buying PS fluid......
Be very aware of what fluid your system takes. Almost all cars and light trucks use the generic power steering fluid (which is pretty much tractor hydraulic fluid, but not quite). Medium and heavy duty trucks more often take ATF. If you have a Honda, BUY HONDA FLUID AND NOT ANYTHING ELSE!!! That includes the universal stuff, get the Honda specific fluid. Make for darn sure you know what type to use, ATF and power steering fluid/hydraulic fluid are very incompatible, you will trash every seal in the system by using the wrong fluid and have an expensive repair on your hands. And your Honda will disown you over the wrong fluid... Also take care to use clean hoses if you are vacuuming out the fluid, do not allow any cross-contamination of fluids.
That being said, should you use this stuff in your Honda? Well, that's your call. They say it's ok, but I know that Honda fluid is somewhat different than all others, hence the different specification. I have not done the in-depth research to see what the specific chemical differences are. Now with ATF, no way I'd use this. That IS radically different. I know they say you can, but I'm not that brave when it comes to trashing $1,000+ in steering system components... What you do on that one is up to you, you may be fine, all I know is that I've seen the damage the wrong fluids cause, and I will not chance it.
Update:
I'm now a month ant 2,000 miles later on the flush and the system is working not only flawlessly, but silently. After a week or so of the fluid being the the system, the pump kept getting quieter, to the point now that it is no longer making any noise that I can hear unless I jamb it all the way to the steering lock and hold it. I'm officially impressed, this works better than the professional stuff I used to use in the dealer. It's just a little expensive, but well worth it. Like I said in my original review, flush it with the cheap fluid and final flush/fill with this. I used only this as the flush and final fill as mine system was not that dirty, so my system is probably 90% filled with this stuff.
replaced 16oz of Power Steering fluid with Lucas Power Steering fluid and no more noise!
We removed the old liquid with a Turkey baster, replaced it with a bottle of Lucas & my car runs like a new one!
