When researching how to preform a power steering flush I understand that there is two different suggestions on how this is to be done.
1) remove the return line off the P/S cooler and point it down and place a large drain pan under it. have a buddy start the truck then pour new ATF in the fill port. do this for about 30 seconds. then shut it off. hook up the hose and add some more ATF. idle it and check the level.
2) to flush, remove the hose that comes out of the reservoir for the PS pump. follow that out of the top of the reservoir (it is the one coming in the top of the reservoir. follow the hose to the booster, it will go up above the booster and make a 180* turn. disconnect the hose at the booster, and put a clear piece of 3/8'' ID hose over the nipple and run it over the fender, down into a pan/bucket. get someone to press the pedal firmly but slowly, and turn the steering wheel several times while you keep filling the RS pump reservoir. the fluid will start out as a "rootbeer" color and eventually turn to a cherry/grenadine color when you are finished. <!-- / message --> <!-- sig -->Which way is correct, or do the accomplish the same goal.
