GN Power steering reservoir

hello; Did you change your pump? I was just told you do.. Meaning not stock pc.

Yes , had my stock pump sent out to Turn One in Michigan for modification.
They installed AN fittings and also adjusted the PS pump for optimum performance for HydroBoost.
Give Junior a call.
My pump had the flow rate (gpm) and output pressures raised to 1850psi and 2.9 gpm
Works great on my HydroBoost system now.
I also installed a PSC power steering fluid reservoir which is ideally suited for the HydroBoost set up.
Not cheap but at the end of the day works fantastic.
The juice was most definitely “worth the squeeze”

hello: I bought a cheep set of crows at NAPA and gave it a shot. And it did not work. I've been spraying it with deep creep but I think it's going to need some heat to move it. Sucks.

Try a very long 1/2” drive Johnson Bar, you’ll need to apply lotsa torque to that thing

hello: I got that high pressure line nut off
today. With the deep creep, some heat a 1/2" drive, two extensions and the cheap crows foot it moved. But on a stock PSR there are two lines one large on and one small. Witch one is the return?

On the PS reservoir the larger diameter line would feed your PS pump and tje smaller diameter line is your return

hello: Thanks for that. I'm just about ready to give the HB a shot. How much fluid do you think I should get to give it a flush and fill?

Definitely flush your steering box thoroughly before installing torn HydroBoost.
Would be a good idea to also install an inline PS filter. Kirban offers an inexpensive Magna-Pur in line filter

hello: How much PS fluid does it hold?

Am unsure , would be best to have several quart bottles on hand
