Specified oil for motor pump
SPECIAL POWER STEERING FLUID
[Part No. K0209A0080]
Oil quantity:
All systems .... . . 0.65
£
(1.4 US pt, 1.1 Imp pt)
Oil tank ........ 0.25

(0.5 US pt, 0.4 Imp pt)
(1) Replenish specified fluid to 4 cm (1.6 in) below reser-
voir filler opening.
(2) Raise car with ignition switch OFF. Turn steering
wheel from lock to lock until air bubbles disappear, as
follows:
a. Turn steering wheel slowly from lock to lock at least ten
times.
b. Thereafter, turn steering wheel from lock to lock by
gradually increasing turning speed. Repeat ten times. Be care-
ful not to allow fluid to overflow from filler opening.
(3) Idle engine with car raised.
(4) Slowly turn steering wheel fully to the left and then
to the right until no air bubbles appear. (Turning steering
wheel from lock to lock three times causes air bubbles to
disappear.) During turning, oil level falls. Add fluid as
required to maintain a constant level of oil.
(5) Lower the car to ground with engine running at idle.
(6) Slowly turn steering wheel fully to the left and then
to the right to check that no air bubbles appear in fluid,
and that change in oil level is within 3 mm (0.12 in).
If oil level changes excessively or oil
is
whitish (contaminated)
and
if
oil pump emits gear noise, air is not bled completely.
Leave car unattended for 30 minutes and start to bleed air
again.
6) Lower car to ground.
