Suck all the fluid out of the reservoir, add new fluid, Get under car on drivers side, hook up vaccum pump, crack open bleed screw ( 6mm I think), pump until the fill bottle is about 1/4 full, check fluid, pump some more, check fluid, empty old fluid canister, repeat until you get clean fluid. Piece of cake.
I'm not sure why, but the FSM says not to use a vacuum pump on the hydraulic system. I've always bled it the way Joe@Zspeed recommends (gravity bleed)
