Note: If using the original power steering pump, you must rst ush the pump of any power steering uid.
Contaminated power steering uid may cause damage to the new rack and pinion.
Note: If the power steering uid is foamy, let the vehicle sit for 10 minutes and then repeat the bleeding procedure.
Note: Trapped air in the system will cause a milky appearance in the uid. Trapped air will also cause the uid level
to rise in the reservoir when the engine is not running.
