penna22 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 i just replaced engine in my 2002 out back h6 3.0... Before engine was removed power steering was excellent ..During engine removel I had power steering lines drained & then dropped power steering down because I was thinking i needed to do this to get at tourque converter bolts till i discovered there on engine top thats another story .. any way moter in and runs great..I learned allot thanks to you good people. The power steering was installed the same way plenty of fluid but now its noisy and whiney still has power steering going down road , my question Do these systems have to have air bled out or something I can't figure out whats wrong.. Any help would be appreciated...Jim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 the pump is succking air. typically this is a bad o-ring on the suction hose bolted to the top of the pump coming from the reservoir. so i would check there first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 needs primed more possibly - turn the steering wheel lock to lock multiple times should bleed all the air out. or the lines/oring/pump/hose got compromised during install like JCE just said.

isaac.jam Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Do you know the part number for the hose that connects to the o-ring/housing? I'm having a hard time finding the correct part. I have that 34611AE110 is the part number from this site: http://opposedforces.com/parts/legacy/en_b12/type_21/steering/power_steering_system/ Nothing seems to come up when I search on the dealers site with that part number. Also I found one for the 2.5 I'm not sure if it would fit on a 3.0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 that part number is for europe. search again and use the US catalog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
