To get the fluid out, I have had good luck using thin 1/4" hard plastic hose, (Like Pex), that I can fit inside the valve stem. On some tires I have even had to shave the plastic hose down on the O.D. so it will fit in the valve stem. I cut the hose to 5-10" and wrap some tape around the hose about 16" in to seal the hose to the valve stem. Rotate tire so valve stem is up and inflate it with a blow gun. Pull out the blow gun and jab the hose in. The tape on the hose will make a pretty good seal on the valve stem. Rotate the tire so valve is on the bottom.
It may take a while using the tire air pressure to pump the fluid through the 1/4" hose, and probably need to rotate the tire back to the top and re-inflate a couple of times, but when it gets down to the bottom of the tire, I can rotate the tire around and turn the hose back and forth and blow out all the fluid. I think I can remove 99.5% of all the fluid or more and usually it makes very little mess. To refill I have used a 12v sprayer pump. Just be sure to rinse pumps well after use.
