if you get it out soon you're OK.
I'd want to get plenty of extra fluid and do complete drain with the pump. remove the return hose and let it pump out into a hose to a bucket or something. refill with new, run steering lock to lock few times. repeat like 3-4 times or until you run out of new PS fluid.
maybe some others have opinions on this method. I dont like running the pump dry but a few seconds but dont know of a better way unless you have someone behind the wheel to start/stop the car and run the steering lock to lock for you while you pour new fluid into the reservoir as the old pumps out into a hose. it may not pour fast enough anyway from the original bottle/can. could pour a few cans into something bigger first. anyone else have some ideas? I need to do mine soon anyway.
and....get at very least COMPLETE refund for my Jiffy-Crap bill.
NEVER go there again! please, people. do all your own fluid replacements. dont send your car in for that kind of abuse. ;-)
