I just did mine on my 2000 about 3 months ago. Somethings I found out was my adjustment bolts to loosen belt that on the ps pump was frozen had to soak it good with Kroil oil, go ahead and flush system I used the Prestone flush kit as the t connector came in handy when filling and burping it and last I used the Krikit style belt tensioner to set belt...found out my grabbing and twisting the belt feel was off.
