Well, here's my stupid question for the week:
This goes to Steve W. or anyone that has experience with it.  What is the procedure for getting air out of the system using vacuum?  I replaced my pump several months ago (big thanks to all who helped again!) but I think it might still have air in the system.  I have tried purging several times and this usually involved sucking out the reservoir and adding fresh fluid and the symptoms usually go away for a week or so. My symptoms are groans and pulses sometimes and especially at low speeds an increase effort for a few seconds like the pump is not pumping fast enough.  Is this air or is this something wrong with the VAPS?  Please tell me it's air...
Thanks, JB
