parking brake. Only work on a cold vehicle that has been sitting overnight, failure to do so will result in severe burns and injury. Before starting
the vehicle, make sure no tools or any other items are left under hood that could interfere with or be drawn into moving parts of the engine.
Failure to follow instructions can lead to severe damage and personal injury.

SYSTEM CHECK
1. Check fluid level and add fluid as needed.
2. Start vehicle, with the parking brake applied slowly rotate the steering wheel from left to right several times. This will
bleed the system.
3. Turn off engine and check all connections for leaks.
4. Re-check fluid level and add fluid as needed.
ROUTING HOSES
This cooler is designed to install on the Low Pressure side of the power steering pump. (See Diagram #3)
1. Identify the Low Pressure hose coming from the power steering pump. The Low Pressure hose is usually smaller and is
secured by a hose/band clamp. The High Pressure hose is usually larger and has swedged fittings.
2. Disconnect the Low Pressure hose from the power steering pump.
3. Carefully route the looped hose now attached to the cooler toward the power steering pump.
The Oil Cooler will flow in either direction, there is no specified inlet or outlet port.
4. Using the Hose Clamp supplied, cut hose to length and attach hose coming from the Oil Cooler to the fitting on the power
steering pump.
5. Route remaining hose toward the steering box.
6. Using the Hose Clamp supplied, cut hose to length and attach remaining hose coming from the Oil Cooler to the fitting on the
steering box.
When routing hoses, be sure to keep all hoses away from sharp edges, moving parts and hot engine components.
Hoses should be routed carefully and should not be bent in less than a 3” radius.
A kinked hose will restrict flow and could cause pump failure.
