How do I change Hydraulic Fluid? Pump Reseal
Need to reseal the hydraulic pump I have or replace with the extra used
one I have. It is leaking the fabulous green stuff quite quickly now, spot
on the garage last night. I am wondering what is going to happen when I
undo the lines to the pump? Is the fluid going to leak out, or flow out
quickly? Will the fluid remain in the lines because of pressure holding it
in?
Now once I know that I will crack the pump and take a looksee. I have
another used pump, but need the change the pulley wheel on it since it is
bent. I cracked that open a while ago to teach myself how it works and what
seals are in there. Shoudln't be to hard to replace or get a seal kit for
the existing pump. Just not sure about what the fluid will do and all that.
Bentley just says add fluid and the system will bleed itself?
Thanks!
