Subject:Flushing power steering system
From:McBryde, Connor
Date:Wed, 25 Aug 2004 08:54:37 -0700

I have the "opportunity" to replace my power steering rack due to a leaking
seal, and noticed that the instructions for my rebuilt unit specify flushing
out the system.  However, there are no instructions for how do do this, and
Bentley is woefully short on data regarding power steering system in general
and this in particular.  Any favorite methods out there besides just opening
lines and pouring in P/S fluid with engine running?  I will replace filter
in P/S reservoir as well.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

TIA.
