Changing Supercharger oil, Best Way?

[regalfriend]

I have a 1997 1/2 Regal Gs. I am getting ready to put a new pulley and belt and realize the S/C oil should be changed...I think owners manual says every 50,000 miles. When i asked a friend how to do this he showed me the allon bolt in the nose drive..He told me to take the bolt out and use a turkey baster to extract the fluid. He said the fluid is really rancid and to throw away the baster after the job..My question is...Do i need to elevate the left side of car to ensure all fluid is coming out? How many pints do i need to refill and how do i know when S/C is full?
