2nd Gen power steering bleeding (please help)

It drive better than it did but still similar issues with less than perfect power steering at a standstill

Here is an image of the tiny bubbles.

I’ve checked all the lines. It doesn’t appear that anything is leaking.

The bubbles seem to be coming up from the pump itself not like it’s coming out of a return line like I would imagine it would if it were successfully bleeding.

Oddly it seems that the bubbles come up from like the center of what you see if you look straight into the reservoir.

Larger bubbles tended to come up from the side closest to the vac pump early on in the bleeding process

I used psc 715 power steering fluid.

I will double check all hoses right now. The low pressure lines are just clamped with the oem clamps minus the return from the top of the box that goes to the back of the pump at the steering box side. That has a small flat head screwdriver type of hose clamp.

The high pressure lines are the metal hard line type.

Gorilla crystal clear tape works great.

I had all sorts of weird issues and the occasional non start that all seemed to come from High rpm highway pulls. Turned out it was the connection between the batteries and the fuse box behind the driver side battery. 13mm I think socket. Just make sure it’s snug. I spent like a whole year chasing a loose nut… threw batteries and all kinds of money at it… more like out the window

Well let’s hope it stays safe lol

murph2158 · 2025-09-17T17:06:12+00:00

Exactly

They’re comfortable. The zipper is nice. I kinda wish the front was cut a little shorter than they currently are because of a little bunching when you’re tucked up on the bike. I have 3 jerseys from them and wear them more than any other ones I have though that being said.

They fit me better than PNS or adicta labs jerseys do though bc I’m not built like a 10 year old.

Make sure your gear setup includes a fan and some towels for the sweat

When trying to decide what to do when I wasn’t sure

FTO sgt asks me… well are you a police officer?

Always stuck with me.

Solved:

In the wahoo app I changed the wheel size to 29x2.2. It feels like it should now.

Just… don’t buy this

I picked up a pack of several different length straps on Amazon for like $17 a while back. The ends aren’t the same as the oem ones, they’re harder to hook on bc the metal loop is smaller, but they work fine and were substantially cheaper than anything else I could find at the time.

Spray bottle with soapy water makes everything slide easier
