Subject:question on 1990 power steering fluid and lower hose replacement
From:David Cohen
Date:Fri, 13 Nov 2009 18:40:13 EST

Hi,
  I just realized that the lower power steering fluid hose which goes  from
the reservoir to the pump is leaking and cracked.  Where do you  suggest I
get a replacement hose and what fluid do I use to refill the  reservoir?
Does it use standard ATF oil? The reservoir appears to  have ATF oil stamped
on it.  Do I need to bleed the system when changing  out the hose and if so,
how?
Thanks in advance,
David
Guess it's time for me to buy a Bently manual.
