Thank you for your directions. Nice straight forward presentation. One thing, I believe, would be beneficial is to jack the front of the car till the front wheels are just off the ground. This puts considerably less stress on the whole steering system and is less damaging to the tires.
Might help to repeat this process a few times. Since there is going to be a lot of the old fluid circulating. Otherwise you are just mixing two of them together.
One big correction to the guide: definitely do NOT use "general" power steering fluid. At the very least use fluid specifically made for Honda/Acura vehicles. For a few dollars more you can use Genuine Honda fluid from the dealer. My local Honda dealership was actually $1.50 cheaper than the auto parts stores bottles.
If you want to keep for Honda/Acura vehicle for long PLEASE do not do this. 1. You are NOT suppose to run the PS pump EMPTY at all. 2. Please use genuine Honda PS fluid.
@@aakudevBut they recommend using a Honda OEM fluid. Definitely do NOT use general power steering fluid. It may look the same but you will have problems. At the very least, use fluid specifically made for Honda/Acura

I used a big syringe with an extension.

This will destroy your pump and rack. By not using factory fluid
Is This is how they do it at the honda dealership In sri lanka
I hope not

Wouldn't recommend this method.
This is how honda also recommends, which idea do you think is better? Only thing is the pump shouldnt go dry.
there is a different diy method from alimec which i tried was much better imo. i changed the atf that way @@aakudev
