Refilling & Bleeding System: Jeep

  1. Fill reservoir to correct level. Operate engine until fluid reaches normal operating temperature. Stop engine and correct fluid level if necessary. Turn wheels to full left position and add fluid to reservoir to fill to "FULL COLD" mark on dipstick.
  2. Start and operate engine at fast idle. Recheck reservoir level and add to "FULL COLD" mark on dipstick. Bleed air from system by turning wheels from side to side without contacting stops. Maintain fluid level just above pump body. Fluid with air in it will have bubbles in it and will have a light tan or tan-orange appearance.
  3. Continue to turn wheels until all air is removed from system. When air is removed, return wheels to straight ahead position and operate engine an additional 2-3 minutes and then stop engine. Road test vehicle and recheck fluid level. Level should be at "FULL HOT" position after system has stabilized. Add as necessary but do not overfill.
