For the V6 cars, just remove the power steering cooler 
entirely.  Flush a couple quarts of cheap fluid through the 
system while turning the wheels left/right (motor off, 
wheels up) and then re-install the cooler and fill.

Work the wheel back and forth with motor running several 
times and top off before going for a short drive, and then 
top off again if needed.  That should take care of it.
