[s-cars] Hydraulic Fluid Level

[Fred Munro]

Hi Mark;

Mine leaks back 1/2" or so above Max. Run the car until the level is down
(bomb is charged), shut it off and fill the reservoir. It won't leak back
immediately (if it does you need a new bomb!).

Thanks Fred:

How far above MAX do you leak back, and do you fill the reservoir while the
car is running?  I could not find anything in the Bentley on said subject
and can't imagine (although have not looked) that the owner's manual would
have any insights.

Anybody else care to give their $0.02 on this.

Regards,

Mark

Hi mark;

Your bomb is leaking fluid overnight past the check valve into the
reservoir. Mine is near MAX when the car is running, it goes above Max
overnight as some of the fluid leaks back. Running at Min may see the low
level light come on now and then.

Hi:



I think this is normal but.  When the motor is running the reservoir is
right at the MIN mark.  When the car sits overnight I am right at the MAX
mark.  Should I add some or is my bomb going bad or other pressure leak?



Regards and happy holidaze,
