Power Steering Bleeding: Service and Repair
Inspections Before Bleeding
Inspect the following parts before bleeding the power steering system:
1. The power steering hoses must not contact any other part of the vehicle. Power steering system noise could be caused by the power steering hoses
touching the frame or the engine.
2. The power steering hoses for tight connections. Loose connections could cause fluid leaks or allow air to enter the power steering system.
3. The accessory drive belt tightness.
4. Check power steering pulley for looseness or damage. The pulley must not wobble while the engine runs.
