BLEEDING THE POWER
STEERING SYSTEM
1. Disconnect the fuel line. Using a starter motor,
crank the engine and turn the steering wheel from
lock to start 5 or 6 times.
Notice: Do bleeding with engine cranking. If bleed
with idling, there can be a air contact with oil.
2. Connect the fuel feed line and start the engine at
idle speed.
3. Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock until there
is no more air in oil reservoir.
4. Connect the oil level is within specification.
5. By turning the steering wheel left to right, check
the oil level change.
Notice: If oil is not changes more than 5 mm, do
bleeding again. If oil level rises suddenly when
stopped engine, again.
MAINTENANCE
CHECKING AND ADDING FLUID
Notice: When adding fluid or making a complete fluid
change, always use DEXRON. - II power steering fluid.
Failure to use the proper fluid will cause hose and seal
damage and fluid leaks.
1. The power steering fluid level is indicated by marks
on a fluid level indicator on the fluid reservoir cap.
2. If the fluid is warmed up to 66 °C (150 °F), the fluid
level should be between the MAX and MIN marks.
Add fluid as needed.
3. If the fluid is cool, 21 °C (70 °F), the fluid level should
be at the MIN mark. Add fluid as needed.

6C-2 POWER STEERING GEAR
POWER RACK AND PINION
The power steering rack and pinion system has a rotary
control valve that directs hydraulic fluid coming from
the hydraulic pump to one side or the other side of the
rack piston. The integral rack piston is attached to the
rack. The rack piston converts hydraulic pressure to a
linear force that moves the rack left or right. That force
is then transmitted through the tie rods to the steering
knuckles, which turn the wheels.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
If power rack and pinion steering is not available, manu-
al rack and pinion control is used; however, with this
system, more steering effort is required. The movement
of the steering wheel is transferred to the pinion. The
rotary movement of the pinion is then transferred
through the pinion threads, which mesh with teeth on
the rack, thereby causing the rack to move in a linear
direction.
A vane-type of hydraulic pump provides hydraulic pres-
sure for both steering systems.
