Default Steering Rack

My steering seems to have a case of morning sickness. I have siphoned out the fluid acouple of times, but that only removes about 16 ozs. How do I flush out and change all the fluid?
What is the capacity? I have been using Valvolene Synthetic, is that a good choice ( meets Gm spec )

Keep siphoning and replacing the fluid until it comes out clear, turning the steering wheel back and forth 3 or 4 times between changes or after driving to circulate the fluid. for your final fill i would try lucas oil power steering fluid, its red, it should help. You can by Lucas oil at Don Jay auto parts on Long Beach Rd in Oceanside
