i disconnted a power steering pipe on my x16xe and the fluid came pouring out as it was under pressure. ive connected up the hose and filled it with power steering fluid.. it didnt seem 2 take much fluid though :S
do i need 2 bleed the system to allow the fluid to circulate around the pump properly ?
or wait until the cars running and just turn it lock to lock ?
or do i not need 2 worry ? lol
help please

Fire it up, lock to lock half a dozen times and top it up.
