System Bleeding

  1. Raise and support vehicle. Fill fluid to proper level in reservoir. Turn steering wheel lock-to-lock. Recheck fluid level. Start engine and let idle. Turn steering wheel lock-to-lock 2 or 3 times. Lower vehicle.
  2. Run engine at less than 1000 RPM. Turn wheel from lock-to-lock 2 or 3 times. Turn steering wheel to straight-ahead position. If fluid level does not rise and no foaming of fluid is evident, bleeding is complete. If fluid level rises, or foaming appears, repeat procedure until air is no longer present.
