Week 1 (4/5-4/8) Power Steering Flush

Nothing too exciting for the first week of the quarter at work. We flushed the power steering on one of our fueling trucks. The process was pretty straight forward. We placed the front axle on jack stands so that the front wheels hovered a few inches above the ground. We detached the return hose on the bottom of the filter housing and exercised the steering wheel from full left to full right until the fluid had been completely drained from the system. We installed the new filter and filled the system with fluid while exercising the steering wheel to eliminate air bubbles in the system.

Hours: 32
Running Total: 32
