After installing my 422 my PS wasnt providing any hydraulic assist-so I replaced Rack and power steering pump.
I just installed a new PS pump and rack. Do I need to let fluid bleed down to the rack at the fittings etc?
I know in the past you just take the wheel left to right several times to get air out. I ran the car at idle for a few minutes and the PS reservoir has not gone down yet.
I don't have any special vacuum tools for this type of work though as I have seen mentioned on power steering articles.
