I can confirm Wire's statement is 100% true. After pouring in about a half gallon of fluid and watching 1/4 of that blow out from turning left and right on the ground while it was running and hearing the pump scream. I am guessing there is solid rationale behind the bleeding procedure. I had...

Interesting. I will give it a try. I didn't want to waste time getting this beast in the air if it didn't matter. It sure would save me a lot of time and aggravation if I didn't have to swap out the pump. As well as a few $$.

Power Steering Pump After my hose clamp saga, I have replaced the hose and filled the reservoir. Since I limped home, it really wasn't in a place that is easy to follow the bleeding process. How critical is it to follow that process of jacking it up and turning left right 20 times vs just...

Good to know. I have been looking for quantities. I am guessing it is completely dry. All my clamps are the regular worm gear hose clamps. This one looks like it should have been a 1/4 clamp that they used a 3/4 and it was ran down as far as it would go, but probably needed a few more turns...

On the right track! Looks like another hose clamp issue. The hose going into the cooler worked its way out. This is the second hose clamp issue I have had. The last one was on the fuel line. My motor was very recently replaced and I am guessing who ever did the swap subscribed to the one...

Thought I heard some PS hissing that went away at full lock. Ignored it, driving along about 35mph wind shield gets blasted with fluid. Go to pull off the road no steering and no brakes. Pull out a can of spinach and yank the beast off the road and stand on the brake pedal. Open the hood and...
