Relocate Powersteering Reservoir

Postby metris » Tue Mar 18, 2008 3:19 pm

Hey hey anyone done it?

I am about to do it, hopefully this weekend... so that my new intake can get connect into the \"cold air box\" more directly...

Im pretty sure I'll have to drain the powersteering fluid...

Anyone know the easiest way to do this?
Any issues with refilling?
Will i need to/should i flush the system? and if so how?
Any recommendations on powersteering fluid to refill with?

Cheers guys!

Will post pics too after its done if anyone is interested.

I don't see any problems just draining it, plugging it all up and later just refilling. I've removed power steering and then put it back on. Just topped it up with auto fluid (?) and it seemed fine.
