I had a post earlier in the week regarding replacement of a power steering cylinder from Teleflex. I received the cylinder, filler kit, and the oil is on its way. One thing I am confused about is purging the system. It seems as if the directions are written for a "brand new" install, where there is currently NO oil in the system. I am replacing a failed unit, so there is fluid in the helm and in the lines.
My question, is that anybody that is familiar with this, do I need to purge all the old fluid out, and make sure only new fluid is in the lines?
An example of the instructions for install listed here:
