    Jack both front wheels off the ground. The unhook the return line to the pump. Cap one end with a 10mm cap and slide a 9/16 piece of hose over the stock hose. Now put the end of a hose in some kind of catch container. Now just turn the wheels all the way left and then all the way right with the car off. Then check the level of the powersteering fluid. You may need to add some. Then all the way elft and all the way right again. Usually it takes arounf 1 liter on an inline 5 car.
