Hydroboost Power Steering Flush
Per manufacture suggestion, I'm flushing the power steering system before bleeding because of all new components.
I've installed a new hydroboost and steering box system. It has a dual return remote reservoir on a upgraded KCR type 2 pump. All on braided lines. I have no leaks and I double check that the lines are going where they are supposed to.
I filled the reservoir about half way and disconnected the return line from the steering box at the reservoir.
I then connected a remote starter and turn the engine over about 3-4 seconds. Then a little longer. I've done this several times. The fluid amount in the reservoir does not change and I of course have not gotten any fluid back through the return.
I've backed off the feed line at the pump and it started leaking. So I have fluid at the pump. I've let it sit. I've "slowly" turned lock to lock and have gotten no change. I don't want to keep turning the engine over and damage something.
Help and suggestions please.
