[Shotimes] Power Steering Fill

[Jonathon Beisler]

Hello all,
Well, I'm finally to the point after a night of cursing and screaming that I should be able to finish my power steering pump this evening.  I don't think that I have ever worked so hard on getting a nut loose in all my life.  This was for the pressure line nut.  What a pain in the Ass!  There's no room and that thing was on there tighter than I don't know what.  I ended up laying across the engine to get enough leverage.  I hope to God that I never come across something like that again.  Anyway, I digress.  The reason for this post is that I am seeking advice on how to fill the pump and cycle out the air and the old contaminates.  The Helms says to disconnect the ignition coil and pump it with the starter but that seems like it would be unhealthy for the starter.  Any ideas?  Also, and not to start a debate, but what's the best replacement fluid?  I have a bunch of cheap stuff as I was going to attempt to flush the system someday but now, I might as well get something permanent.   I welcome any and all suggestions.  Thanks again!
