does the reservoir ever need to be bled on this thing? I dont think I have air, I am more interested in a fluid flush.

havent looked at this one, anyone done this and care to share some tips? need some help as to what I should be looking for and doing to get fresh fluid in this bad boy

Use a turkey baster, small pump, etc to suck the fluid out of the reservoir. You wont get much out at all(~1/4quart) so what I did was suck it out and fill it up, then start it and run the wheel lock to lock, and repeat 4-5 times. :)

damn alright, I was hoping there was actually a purge/bleed valve so I could cycle everything through like ive done on others.

I thought you shouldnt use atf+4 on this?

Ill go buy a turkey thing, thanks
